Dont let that scare you. You"ll actually be better off then I, being you have a manual. 3.21s handle fine with 35s temporarily while you save to regear. Ive been on 35s for over a year now with my automatic and 3.21s. Definitely not ideal, but its not terrible. If you end goal is not 33s, step up to 35s, the price difference in the tires make it stupid to just not go 35s from the start. If your only wanting 33s for other reasons, i completely understand. I just dont want you to not get 35s bc the 3.21s scare you

I know it's all personal feel but I disagree I have 33s 3.21s and a 6speed and I hate it, if I would have went 35s in my opinion I would have re geared already no way I would have been ok with it.

And for reference I'm on 4dr Springs and 33s

Just on another note for the 3.21s with a manual once you get it going it's not an issue the big issue I have is in 1st if there is even any slight hill I'm revving the shit out if it to not stall and while off roading (terrain dependant) if your in 1st 4 hi it's practically useless. Idk just my personal opinion I wouldn't go over 33s with the 3.21s and manual just because it's a pain in the ass if you are starting and stopping often. Sure an auto will hunt more for gears while driving but they don't have the issue of getting off the line in first like a crappy geared manual and that is what is currently driving me to sock money away for gears over everything else right now

Heres a few pics of my 2dr on 285s (narrow 33s) on a 2.5" Rubicon Express coil lift

And as for the 33 vs 35 semi debate. I would have loved 35s instead of 33s however due to the amount of driving i was doing at the time (even though i have a 6spd wth 3.73s) it would have been irresponsible of me to go with 35s. But i am buying 35s soon and am going to run my 33 duratracs in the winter since theyre narrower and an AT.
