Am I going to notice between 32's and 33's?

Last night I ripped a sidewall in one of my 32x11.50 BFGs

I need new tires by friday, belle tire said the 32's were on backorder, at 175 a piece (out the door) and it would be questionable if it were to get there in time.

So instead, Im buying a set of 33x12.50 Dueler AT's with 1200 miles on the, for 250, and I decided to buy a set of soft8's to mount them on (i think a 12.50 on a 7" wheel is a strech + my wheels look sick anyways, the clearcoat is pealing)

so, will i notice a difference between 32x11.50's and 33x12.50's?

im thinking ill notice the width more than the height

Oh yea, instead of spending 175 on a new tire, im spending 450 on new wheels and tires, funny how that works

what are worried about noticing? itll look better, probably cause a small bog, and wheel a tad better.

in the end the result will be small, but whether you realize it or not, they are helpful.

so if your looking for approval on it, from your self or us, APPROVAL GRANTED
