Help with tire size

Hey guys I'm new here and was hoping some one could give me some advice? I have a 2003Screw with the 20" Harley wheels,and was wondering what size mud tire I can use with my stock ride height? I have been told 33's will fit, but with how much rubbing? Any help would be great. Thanks!!

If you have a 4x4, I'd go with a 305/55-20 (33x12.50-20). Depending on the width and backspacing of the Harley wheels you may have to trim a little plastic off the front bumper's lower valance.

You don't need a leveling kit because the front ride height of our trucks is adjustable by the preload on the torsion bars. They make leveling kits, but they are a bad idea. They are just reindexed torsion bar adjustment keys. These allow you to put way, way too much preload on your torsion bars which leads to increased wear and tear on your front end and destroys your ride quality. Plus, there is no need to buy a $200 product that allows you to do something you can do for free.
