If you give the particulars of the vehicle, ie, model, year, any mods, current tyre size, revs at say 100kph etc, lots here can tell you straight up, maths is pretty beaut.

I'd let you borrow mine, but they will scrub like crazy on standard WT diffs.

If it helps my car has a fair bit of lift and diffs move forward and back.
And the Wheels will only be used for on road driving.
I can supply a set of stock or my current 31x10.5's if any body need to run around.
Will post a side pic to show clearance.

Sorry mate I was refering to the offset.

So you have 31's now and want to see what 33's are like? Imagine the swap from stockos to 31's. It will the that much worse again.

They are a 6% bigger tyre, so, if you sit on 3500rpm, with 31s, then on 33s you will do the same speed for 3290rpm

It's not really that easy with a turbo application you need to find out how much you are loading up the motor.
