The difference between 31s,32s,and 33s isn't much. I don't know what you're running now but I'd just stay with those and save up for something that'll make a difference, like 35s or bigger.

the tire on the far left looks wasted, not any tread at all.

i also agree with what snuts has to say.

The 32's you listed are wasted, one is completely gone and I don't think any of the others have more than 10-15% tread, and there is no way I would pay $150 for them. If you only have $150, keep saving it up and keep an eye out. For twice the money you can get 5 times the tires.

33's are noticably larger than 31's, plus they would be much easier to install on your Bronco with minimal mods than 35's......though if you found a really good deal on a decent set of 35's I would get them.

I like this thinking... You were stuffing the 31's on the RTI ramp... 33's would be noticeable but manageable... I can't image you'll get 35's shoved in there without major trimming/BFH work.

x12 on those tires aren't worth $150

in dannys defence there has been some trimming done on the bronco since the benefit. the wheelwells/fenders are cut out about 3" all the way around. the biggest problem i see at this point would be gearing and part carnage. not a big fan of the ttb front ends so my opinion would be stop at 33s untill you have excess cash to start the repairs. and i have thrown away better tires than whats in that add.:)
