Default 33's

I know this question has been posted several times, but I cant seem to find it

Just wanted to know if 33-12.50R17's will fit the ram without rubbing?
Im gettin them put on tomorrow and just thought I would check.
I havent adjusted the torsion bars and would prefer not to if possible.

Thanks guys!

yep should fit easily. Just put some on the truck this month.. I do have my torsion bars cranked up but the tires still look tiny, now i know why people say u can fit a 35" tire on a stock dodge.

i have 33x12.50x17 mickey thompson baja radial mtx's, they clear w/ PLENTY of room. enough room i think i can clear 35x12.50s on it w/out modifing the body (asuming you tighten the torsion bars) or at least, thats what i'm gonna try the next time i get new tires

I saw your cardomain a while back. Did you just recently add that snorkel? Could you send me or at least post some pics of that snorkel setup underthe hood? Thanks.
