New member, questions about rubbing with 33's

So here in this upcoming August, I am getting an 06 King Ranch 4x4. It is box stock and I was wondering if I put a 2 inch level kit on it, if I would have rubbing issues with 33x12.5 Toyo Open Country M/T tires. Also opinions on whether to get 18x9 or 20x9 in XD Monsters(Chrome) are appreciated. Thanks!

I just put 325/60/18's Terra Graps + XD Monsters on my 07 XLT 4X4. Got the wheels/tires on before my leveling kit came in and didn't have any rubbing before the level. Added a HBS 2" level, even better. The 33" Toyo MT's would fit my truck no problem.

I personally like 18's or 17's over the 20's. More rubber, less wheel. Other then looks I think the 18's would give you a softer ride. Never owned 20's so I can't give you a definitive answer. The 20's cost more if that helps.

I don't think you'll rub.

The only rubbing that I have is at full lock in reverse in one direction and it is rubbing on the aftermarket nerf bars that I installed. The brackets need to be slid rearward about 1/2" but lucky for me, they aren't slotted to allow me to do that.

Maybe one of these days when I'm feeling industrious, I'll take them off and carry them to work to slot the brackets.
