Default 33 inch tires

I did a search for any tpoic related to this and did not find an answer so I will ask. Will 33 inch tires fit on an unmodified 2010 Ram 1500 4x4? I do not have a leveling kit or lift kit. Lift kit is in the works. And hi there.

The stock tires on the 20" rims are 275/60-20, which is 33" in diameter

I believe the 20" tires are 33" and I've had them on my unmodified 2010 without grief.

My original wheels are the 265/70R17 on chrome clad steels. I ran the 20s off an 09 Sport for the summer and went back to the 17s. There was no problem with clearance or rubbing. I was thinking about going to 285/70R17 when I changed back but think the 265s give it more pickup off the line.

Just remember for the OP his signature say's he's has an SLT, and you have a TRX which does have a .7" lift in the front end, it's a little higher than the stock SLT's. So that may allow for that "little bit" bigger tire w/ no rub. just my
