3 inch lift with 33" tires

I just got my lift install what'd does the offset of the wheels have to be to fit 33"?? And if I don't want to change the wheels how big of a spacer do I need to put 33"
33x12.50x17

 

Pretty sure you just need a cab mount chop and you'll be fine

 

spidertrax or bora spacers. Spidertrax are 1.25" and bora offers several different thicknesses. Just make sure they are hub centric. Or run 255/80r17s They require no wheel modification and are lighter and taller than the others.

 

Hub

 

Need to space them out slightly to clear the UCAs

 

Edited thanks

 

I just mounted 33x1250s on a 3" lift. No rubs or scrubs, no cab chop or trimming, just removed front mud flaps. Could be a rare-ity, but I did it. My rims are 20x10 with a -24 offset.

 

I'm also NOT using any spacers... and no rub on the UCAs.

 

Yhea but I want to know how big of a wheel spacer do I need to fit 33/12.50/17 on a 3 inch lift because I don't want to change the rims. I won't stock rims

 

ahhhh 10-4

 

I'm not sure you're going to be able to fit a 12.5" wide tire on stock rims. Maybe I'm wrong? Anybody?....

I just ordered stuff for a 3" lift myself and putting 33x12.5x18 on Fuel 18x9 rims. I think they're 0 offset. I have Spydertrax spacers already on the truck, so I'll try with them first and see what works better with the least amount of trimming. I hope I don't need to do a cab mount chop.
I'm having everything done at a local shop and not sure if they're familiar with chopping cab mounts lol.

I'm going to do a search and see what all is involved in the chop just in case.

 

Tell me how it turns out..

 

Cab mount chop is easy if you can use a welder and a cutoff wheel.

Remember to cycle the suspension with the steering at full lock to see what's going to rub. Those are big tires, I'd be very surprised if just spacers is enough.

 

Go to the Moto Metal website... offset is -24 and Backspacing is 4.56..................

 

We don't know anything about your wheels so we have no idea what the backspacing is so there is no way to tell you what size spacer is required to clear the UCAs. Do you know that a 12.5" tire probably requires a wheel that is something like 8.5" to 11" wide? Just dont dont dont jump right out and spend your money yet. You have a whole lot of learning to do. I'm terrified to even ask what you did for "lift" and why you think that will help with your tire selection.

 

for the 12.5 I am pretty sure you need at minimum a 9.5" wheel to make sure you dont hurt the rubber or roll the tire off the rim when aired down. preferred would be like a 10" for good sidewall. If your going to a 33 x 12.5 (not sure why so wide unless all you do is snow/mud wheeling) I would suggest the 15" or 16" rims.

No matter what to fit a tire that wide you are supposed to run a wider rim

(people have done it before but not recommended for safety reasons)

 

Just bought 32x11.5x15 Falken Wildpeaks for my 05 Reg Cab. When I bought my truck it had a front lift (about 1-2 inches I believe), now, am I going to have a clearance issue with these tires or will I be clear?

 

You should fine. I only did very minimal trimming of some plastic.

 

When I had 32's.

 

I'm pretty sure there aren't any 15" wheels that'll clear the calipers on our trucks.
