33/12.5 on 18 with a 3" lift

Ok so my tire guy says yes it will work. Has anybody done this and what kind of offset would I need on the wheels? This is a 2012 dcsb.

 

I'm curious as well, I know trimming is a deffinate, but I think wheel choice is more of a factor.

 

In the pics flaps were removed but since then replaced and still no rubbing
265/70/18

 

You are comparing 2 different size tires. 265/70/18 is roughly 1/2" shorter and 2" skinnier tire than a 33x12.5 tire. The OP may run into issues with rubbing the cab mount along with the inner plastic and mudflaps.I would have the tire guy throw on that size tire in the front to test it. As for the wheel backspacing, you may need a 3.75-4" due to the tire width.

 

Well I got them on I rub a little but not bad still need to do a little trimming but all is well. I came from 265/70r18.

 

So you running 285s? Which tire specifically? Got any pics?

 

x2 on pics and did it rub the cab mount?

 

Here you guys go! Love them! No cab mod with no rubbing.

 

Very nice!

 

Damn! That setup is clean... Rims/Lift/Leveling Kit?- What brands.. The Mud Grapplers look good but going to have to keep us updated on the wear.. I gotta imagine those things wont last long with normal highway life but of course that's not why you bought them! Im just curious...

Not a believer in copying someones look but man that looks good.. Great choice!

 

Thanks guys! The truck has a pro comp 3" lift with ballistic 18's. The tires are nitto mud grappler 33×12.5. Love the look of the tire but not my first choice but my buddy works at a tire shop and basically got me these things for free so o well. I drive about 70 miles a day to and from work so I know they won't last long but sure will be fun on the weekends lol. After Calibrating the scan guage I'm still getting in the 18's mpg but I was getting 21 before.

 

These are what was on my truck.

 

I know a kid that has basically the same truck as you. 3 inch lift, 33 12.50r18 mud graps. Got em like July of last year and he's down to almost replacing them last I heard. Hope you got a good deal, but they'll look good and sound even better

 

Same tires I currently have on my rig.. Im leaning towards Terra Grapplers for my next choice but defiantly will need to jump up to 18's before I do that.. I was in the same boat as you got these rims for nothing, cant complain too much about the tire.. I need lift!
