Default 33" tire on stock height??

So guys im in the process of buying new tires. I need to know if the 33" tire will fit on my stock height. Also, I want a nice meaty/mean looking tire that will make my truck more manly, which tire should I go with?

I tried looking it up in the search forum but came up empty. Correct me if im wrong, but is the stock tire that came on our trucks 33"?

-Thanks, Erik

coopers, nitto tera grapplers/mud grapplers, or toyos a/t would look good

How long will these tires last me. Im going to school that is 45min away from my house and on the weekends I will be doing highway driving. im not commuting to school so it wont be an issue but i just want to know the life span of these tires.

Yea RH is selling his whole set actually. Rims and tires. I gave him a offer but not enough $$. I saw a video of the mud grapplers on youtube and they seem very loud.

Mud Grapplers get maybe 20k miles if you use them on tarmac, you might want to look into Terra Grapples, good AT tire, 40k mile guarantee, great on tarmac and wet roads, and capable of handling some good off road fun.
