If you look at my pictures I am running 33x12.5 on a 15 inch rim, I am not sure of the rim width though. It is the same in my avatar.

Yeah, about that but I also have fender flares on there so with out them it may be alot further, wich may be ilegall in your state, some have laws about tires extendng so far out the body.

They are good wheels.


If you want to know how far they will stick out, just get the backspacing/width on those wheels and the same on your stock wheels and do the simple math. But they will most likely be around a few inches or so on each side.
