I'm thinking that when my BFG's finally go bad in the next year or so i'm obviously gonna get some new BFG's but i'm stuck on what size to get. I want to crank the torsion bars slightly to level it out a bit and i was wondering how much of a difference will it make if i go to 32 x 11.50 up from my 31x10.50? Just from power to MPG to front end bushings and bearing wear? is this even anything to worry about as its not that big of a change i think? Mainly i was curious about off road if my torque would go down or anything? BTW I drive a 2000 4.0 L With 107,000 miles. Any comments would be appriciated, thanks!
 
It won't make enough difference to be noticeable.
 
I run 31" for everyday use and 32" for off-road. There is not much difference between the two with respect to power and gas mileage. The 32" are louder and more harsh because they are MTs compared to the 31" ATs. If they had the same tread I would have to pay very close attention to tell the difference. With the 32" tires and a 1.5" t-bar lift, I rarely get rubbing and that is very light and only in rough off-road conditions.
 
hmm ok i wasn't thinking it would make a HUGE deal, that would be real noticeable. The gearing is just the stock 4.10 gears...just thought mainly i could fill those rear fender wells a little as their is too much room...
