    Painting Eagle alloys is just like painting any other wheel. Sand the shine off, prime a few layers, paint a few layers. For those, you're looking at 285/75/16's or 255/85/16's for 33's

    With that backspacing, you might run into issues with the tire rubbing on the upper control arm. A small wheel spacer would remedy that issue

    Just got the 33's and i noticed small power loss on hills and some vibrations, maybe i will balance them better. Also im rubbing only at full lock on the frame.
