Default i love my truck

first off. i'm getting brand new bfg m/ts put on monday. size 255/85-16 which is equal to 33x10.75. i'm stoked about getting new tires. the places my truck goes now with the very worn out stock goodyear wranglers is awsome. i rented a john boat with a 30horse toady from the MWR on post and headed up to belton lake. well, all the ramps are closed except the one on the the complete opposite side of the lake. so what do i do. i lauched that sucker where i wanted to fish. just backed my truck into the lake. both times i pulled my truck out and i didn't even get any tire spin(2wd). i love my truck.

keep it real fellas

I wish I could say the same about my truck lol. Iv had so many problems it's not worth it for me. Maybe my ticking noise will finally be gone now that I have placed a header gasket on the truck..

do you have lift or anything on your truck? cuz i dont think 33's would fit stock without some major trimming.

I think the 33's would fit fine. I have 31's and they are 10.5 wide, so really close to these and they only rub on turns very sharply.

I have 32x11 on 17" R/T rims, and they rub a lil bit and I cranked my T bars 2".. so 33's will rub. but just cut a bit off the front bumper and you should be fine.

Heh, Just throw a 6 inch lift while your at it lol. JK. But a lift looks sweet on these trucks. But I would only do 6 on a v6, any higher and the engine wouldn't pull!
