yea but I'm really worried that i will get the 33s and they will use more gas, more wear and tear and they might rub.

Wont be much of a differemce mpg wise and they wont rub with proper bumpstips and wear wise all tires will get pretty much the same wear with just an inch difference as long as theyre the same type of tire

I have 33s and I get about 11mpg city and 16or so highway. Don't really notice a power loss. I can go 75 on the highway fine and I'm on stock gears and axles. Mine barely rub in the back and none in the front plus I have no bumpstops
