2.5 inch Spacer lift/33s

I know this might get posted on here a lot but will a 2.5 inch lift clear 33x12.50r15? I've looked and can't seem to find a definite answer.

 

Physically yes, holistically no.

 

And that means?

 

It means you can physically fit the tires inside the wells but as a unit your trucks suspension will be far from operating properly.

If you're set on doing it plan to spend a few extra dollars on beefing up all the adjacent systems on the front end.

 

youl want wider wheels with less backspacing than the stockers. besides that you can fit them with no lift if you dont mind trimming the inner fender and the valance a little. (you should do this even with the 2.5" lift)

 

You say you know it's been asked alot and yet you don't search? It's been asked a billion times

 

"I've looked and can't seem to find a definite answer." If you would like for me to translate that for you it means that I've searched but everything I've seen is conflicting. You didn't have to read this thread or respond. I thought I prefaced it to avoid this but I guess it didn't work. Thanks for the input!

 

So like a 15x10 instead of a 15x8?

 

stock is 7" wide with about 4.5"bs. youl want atleast 8". 10" wide will be a bit harder to clear.

 

Ok I've been looking at 15x8 didn't know if you meant wider than that. Thanks!

 

to be honest this does get asked like every couple days. theres even stickies on the topic.

youl have to do pinch weld mod and trim some even with a full 3" lift because the suspension will always compress and articulate so in reality NO 33s wont fit without modification (which is probably where alot of the confusion comes from). Dont panic is they rub a little after that. its nothing a BFH wont fix.

 

Don't shoot me but BFH?

 

Big Fucking Hammer

 

Ok I got you lol

 

Lmao, concise and to the point... You crack me up

good pictures of the pinch weld and what to do with it there.

 

Preciate it bud...thanks for the help.

 

Don't think it has been mentioned but with that tire width and wheel unless your back spacing is at least 4.25"- 4" you will rub the uca pretty good.

 

gona want even less with 12.5s. 3.75 or 3.5" should give decent clearance.

 

You don't have lie through your teeth. If you looked for even 10 minutes you would have found your answer 10 times over. There are stickies about it.

But you didn't read them. Maybe the simple and organized information is too hard for your tiny brain to comprehend.
