If im not mistaken on 04 the smallest tire size is 16 inch due to the calipers.

If they do fit with the caliper issue i think you will still need a 2" or 21/2" leveling kit. I have 33's on my truck and had to lift the front .

no you cannot fit them on your truck at all. smallest you can go is 17s. ive seen peopel grind the calipers to fit 16s in the past but wouldnt reccomend it.

well if its 4wd lift it and put all terrains/ mud terrains (whatever you like) if its 2wd then put 20"s and do the inside, or level it with 2 1/2" spacers up front and still put the 33"s on it and use the money you saved on the 4" lift kit and do the inside?
