Tire Size ?
Hey yall, im pretty set on buying some procomp mud terrains, 33/12.50/r17 to be exact. Before i get them i want to be sure they will fit with very little or no rubbing. Thanks in advance!

It depends on what size are your rims and what backspacing they have. If you are using stock rims then you will have no problems. If you wanted you could put 35's on.

I agree, check your wheel width and backspacing

you should be ok! But id recommend cranking up your torsion bars to level the truck.

Im not gonna say you wont rub theres too many variables but if you do it will be at full lock and the tire will rub the frame

X2, if you have any rubbing, it will be very minor/only on the frame at full lock. you will be okay. the tires will stick out a bit farther, but that is the correct way of dealing w/ wider tires.
