Default 33x1250x15

I could get 4 33x12.50x15 bout half tread for $300. Im going to get them as long as theyd fit on my 95 dakota 4x4 (15x8 i believe). Purchased a 2" leveling kit (blocks and torsion keys) going to be put in before tires. Would they fit?


Thanks in advance

JT

I'm pretty sure that'll work. You just need that extra bit of lift to clear the extra 2 inches cause I have 31s on stock suspension with almost no rub and my buddy has 33s and just the body lift.

It would be close, most usually call for at least an 8.5" rim.

Yes they will fit with 2" of lift, but could rub while turning and "flexing"

Crazy4x4RT has 33/12.5/15 on stock rims, but he has 4 or 5 inches of lift.

Generally, you can fit typical 31's on stock, 33's squeeze with 2" lift and 35's should squeeze with 4+" lift.

I plan on running 35x10.5/15 on mine with 4"-5" of lift (Body lift, Keys, and 2500 leafs which is what Crazy is running). Narrower for the amount of snow I deal with versus mud.

I have 2wd and 225's up front and they rub the frame at full lock turns. nothing to do with this, i just thought that was interesting, always thought it would rub fenders, etc. not the frame. but the 30x9.5 out back are perfect.
