    would this just be the inner fender plastics? and how big would that be before i had to do that? i have a 265/70-16 now and it looks puny. im pretty sure that converts to just a 31. would a 33 fit?

    With a 33, you just trim away want hits. Sometimes, you may need to cut, and Box the body mount....It varies from truck to truck a little bit, so you really dont know until you mount them,.

    For the front. In some cases, the body mount must be cut back, and have a flat peice of steel welded in place of the cut off part.

    You can count on removing the front mudflaps. You'll probably want to pound down the pinch weld at the rear of the front fender wells. A narrower tire may offer a little less rubbing issues. Are you using stock wheels or aftermarket? Wheel offset and backspacing will affect tire rub.

    So I'm sure he can get away with 32" tires? No trimming?

    I'm not sure what you would be able to find for a 16" wheel. There are 33/10.5's available, but they're for 15" wheels.
