[QUOTE="jimpaget, post: 1370198, member: 16451"] I am at the opposite end of the spectrum from most of you. I drive an Isuzu Trooper which still has the IFS. I now run 33 ProComp X-Terrains that have been grooved. I have mild crawler gears in the t-case and stock 4.56 gears in the axles. I have ARB lockers in both ends. I am running around 170 horse and 200 ft. lbs. from a Chevy 3.4 with a Holley TBI. Both before and after the lockers I have run Isabel (R.I.P) as far as the bridge. I occasionally spin my tires, but usually only when something on my under-carriage hangs up on something. Would I go to bigger tires? Probably, because it would give me more ground clearance. I try to go easy on the throttle as I am always aware that my from axle is the weak point in my whole set-up. I have run most trails at Moab on both 31s and 32s. The issue there is not traction or even ground clearance (most of the time) but rather picking the right line. [/QUOTE]
