I put some new shoes on the cruiser today. I picked up some some used 33x10.5-15 BFG AT KO's dirt cheap and decided they would be a better tire for the winter. The MT's are less than stellar on packed now and ice, plus I just don't wheel the 60 like I used to. I mounted the new shoes on some late model FJ40 wheels I had lying around. They're not pretty, but they'll do for the winter and until I go to 16's. I'll probably get another set of MT's at some point, probably in 255/85. In the mean time I'll sell the 33x12.5 MTs and alloys.

33x12.5 on a 15x8 wheel compare to 33x10.5 on 15x5.5 wheel:

Skinny!
