How to fit a 33 with a 3 inch lift

x2

when i went with 285-75-16 on coilovers, i had to get fiberglass fenders, cut the stock bumper, installed a tube bumper, and get 4" backspace wheels...

all that just to throw on some beefy tires which only killed my MPG and power...

although it did segway me into going long travel...

 

the rest of the internet seems to think 33's fit with a 3inch lift, with little trimming.
i dont really want to buy 31's, but i dont want to cut a lot.

 

33+ 3 inch should be pretty easy. Lots of dudes here are running 35s and a 3 inch lift.

 

couldnt find any dynapro's or Cooper Discoverer STT's in 32's for my 16in rims.
still doing research on more tires, but those are the 2 ive liked the best so far.

 

closest would be a 265/75/16 amiright?

 

bump for pictures of cutting.

 

2nd gen very different I hear. looks like u just cut all the plastic?

 

I gave up trying to fit anything larger then 265/75...don't want to trim cut weld. Plus I don't want to lose MPG and power.

Edit: Doh Mike already said this...damn you Mike. LOL.

 

would some new, high performance uca's help clear 33's at all?

 

Don't know why it took almost a month but... No...

285/75-16 is almost 33" and 255/85-16 is a little more than 33". 265/75 is 31.5"

 

The do and they dont. They kinda change where it rubs a little. My 285's rubbed the cab mount mostly before the UCAs. Afterwards they loved rubbing the front of the fender more.

 

Me.
Full 3" lift with 33.3" tires & still running mud flaps.
I've rubbed 3 times (at full lock when I bounced the front too hard) and wouldn't have rubbed if I had taken the mud flaps off.

 

Pyroskier fitting 33x12.50s

 

my 33x10.50s fit pretty well with a 3" lift. I don't rub in the front (but I've done the pinchweld mod), I have trimmed the rear fenders/flares some and still rub a little at full stuff. I'm wanting to go with a 33x12.50 next so I'll have to see how much more trimming will be required.
