Default Tire/Wheel dimensions and where to buy?

Ok, I'm 6,000 miles away from my owners manual, or I'd look myself. Hopefully some of you guys/girls can help me out.

I'm looking on line right now to buy Pro Comp 1079 wheels (17") and Pro Comp All Terrain tires.

Wheels: Is 17 x 9 / 4.75" backspacing / 5 x 5.5 bolt pattern what I'm looking for here?

Tires: 33/12.50R17 Will this fit the rims above (if they are the right ones), and will this combination fit on a currently unlifted '05 4 x 4?

I'm planning on a 3" bodylift when I get home, but if I can go ahead and order the tires and wheels now, it will just be a head start. Also, cheapest place I found on line was www.4wheelonline.com.

Wheels are $128.99 + shipping:

Tires are $161.99 + shipping:

http://www.4wheelonline.com/Products...ProductId=1270

Total comes to $1352.02

This is the cheapest I could find on the 'net via Google. Anyone got any other suggestions? Will this wheel/tire combo work for me even without the lift? Thanks!

My wife called around back home, as well. This is the cheapest I could find the combination, even mixing and matching from different vendors.

Yeah, this is a cheap bump, too...

That's cool, but I'm more interested in making sure that these are the right tire and wheel dimensions I need. Thanks!

Alright, getting ready to buy. I just need a "yes/no" answer from someone that knows before I push the "buy" button...

I'm going to go with 35" tires instead of 33". Can anyone tell me if I'll fit 35's without rubbing? The truck IS getting body lifted 3" next week.
