That's what I have now, and going taller in that width is going to need better shocks and a body lift Really wish they made the AT's or even MT's in the skinnier 33/35" sizes!

A 33x10.50 is pretty narrow.

There's still a good number of companies offering narrower than "standard" tires in the 33-35" range. Interco makes a TON of them, everything from 34x9.00 to 38.5x11.00. Irocs, M16, SSR, LTB, Truxxus, Bogger, TSL, you name it.

BFG and General are two offering 33x10.50 mud terrians. I believe Buckshots are still sold in that size, as well as High Tech retreads (I think the name changed now though).

If going metric there are a TON of 235/85 and 285/85 offerings, from highway all seasons to mud terrains.
