Has anyone used this 33 12.5 20 tires? If you, have, how long did they last you? Thinking about Christmas for myself.

depends on the make of the tire i had them on my old truck nitto mudgraplers 30k tops
but again you need to tell us what tire you are looking at as they all very. most tire specs will give you a wear rating

12.50 is pretty wide. you gonna be able to clear the width on that? and will your rim safely support that wide of a tire? stock wheels are only like 8" right? and most likely dont have the backspacing to clear 12.5" tires.

could be, i dunno. im just throwing out some things to think about that might not have crossed your mind already. if they are 9", is it safe to run a 12.5 tire on a 9" wheel? i personally dont know, but it would be something to look into.

yah they will fit, I met a guy the other day in a parking lot with his dodge level and hes got pro comp xterrains.. 35x13.5x20 on his stock 20" rims... Looked soo good!! The 13.5 wide tires rub though at full crank cause of the stock rims, just need to learn to not turn to full lock!! shouldnt do it anyways..
