    i really doubt any sort of 33inch tire is going to fit a stock setup

    ive got 255/85s which are 33" tall and im lifted and i rub

    good luck fitting them

    never got a straight answer? we all told you we doubted it that a 33 would probably rub the frame with stock wheels or rub the fenders with aftermarket rims.

    Well i meant nobody tried it b4. I just went ahead and did it and they fit lock to lock with no rubbing on the stock wheels. They actually have room to spare. I flexed it and still no rubbing. Ill try to get some pics up when i find my camera. Thanks

    +1, lets see some pics.

    I won't believe it until then. No way you are running 33s on stock wheels with no trimming, rubbing, spacers or lift.

    ftr im not trying to be a dick...im actually trying to be helpful...but in some of your previous posts youve asked how to keep your gas mileage etc and with that 2.7l on 33's on whatever stock gearing you have...youre going to make a pretty noticeable dent in the mileage that youre getting...

    Yea ill get some pics because this works. My buddys brothers rubbed but idk if my coils are newer or what but it works. It is getting the same if not better on the highway becaue i dropped a few hundred rpms on the highway just crusin. They dont look like 33's though. THey are wild countrys.

    i think its that they are so narrow. The only problem is the sidewall is huge so it wobbles like a bastard. i guess its good. slows me down aroeund corners lol

    i've got the BFG 33x10.5 and they don't rub at all. i do have a 3 inch lift on it. i think the widest you can go without wheel spacers or offset rims is an 11.5 inch wide tire though i don't know, i haven't heard about that nor have i tried. i tried some 12.5's, which looked freakin sweet but they rubbed terribly. i am surprised that they fit on a stock setup. just don't put it in the air, you'll knock the hell out of the inside of your wheel wells. i've done it before.
