Will this fit?

I have to make a change, found out the wife is pregnant! Woo Hoo!

But...that means no new wheels.....

I need tires though, bad. Will 33x12.5x20 Toyo M/T's fit on the Ford OEM 20"s? I have a 2" leveling kit, can these work without rubbing?

Thanks guys!

You might have a little rubbing when turning all the way since they're 12.5" wide, but they should fit. Worse case scenario might require a little trimming. I'm sure there are other people running that setup, they should be able to confirm.

The problem with the OEM 20's is they have 6.5 inches of backspacing. Some members have found that some 12.50 inch wide tires will touch the uppercontrol arm/ball joint when you bolt the wheels on. This is usually a problem with mud tires (like the Toyo MT's) with aggressive sidewalls. Some members have solved this problem with thin (1/8 or 1/4 inch) wheel spacer. However, wheel spacers can cause vibration issues.
