do you have to trim the fenders/wheel well to clear 33's with a 2.5" Leveling kit?

Funny, I had the same set-up and they still rubbed. Granted you don't have fender flares so thats probally why.

You could fit 35" tires if you want.

I have a two-wheel drive with the 2" leveling kit and I fit 33s with no rubbing and it looks great.

You're talking about a 4x4 with a 2.5" level. 33s or 35s will fit fine... 35s will probably look better.
 



Quick Reply: do you have to trim the fenders/wheel well to clear 33's with a 2.5" Leveling kit?
