33/10.5 should be no problem. I'm running them on pretty much the same lift

U can clear a 33x1050 at stock height on stock offset wheels

31's, not 33's.
You can run the 33 10.50 with the lift you are doing, but you will rub the sway bar with stock wheels, and you might rub the body mount. Not sure what rubbing issues you would encounter with spacers or a different backspace wheel. I am running 32 11.50 tires on stock wheels with the lift you spoke of and I rub the sway bar at full lock in off camber situations, and only clear it by .5 inches on flat terrain at full lock. Just my experiences here, others may have more insight.
What the heck, Whip, I thought that had been made a sticky long ago? :th_1j2q1i:
Nope, never got sticked yet. I'm currently assembling the thread that will hold the chart though for easier viewing.
with that lift those 33x10.50s will fit no problem.. you MIGHT, "MIGHT" need to do some very minor trimming, but i doubt it..
They should fit, I'll know for sure though this week as that's what I'm putting on my truck. I don't think they'll rub the sway bar, but that's taking measurements from my bald 31x10.5 tires. I'm going to run them on oem wheels.
When I was stock on a stock rim I ran a 31x1050 and I measured it that I could clear a 33x1050. May of rubbed alittle flexing.
Measurements from different tires are going to be different. I know of only three 33 10.50 15 tires out there, Two are BFG and one is interco. If you are measuring from a stock tire on your truck it is a very different kind of tire and a different construction from the BFG and the Interco. Don't be surprised if you have more rubbing issues than you think. Not saying you cannot run them, just be prepared for the issue. No two tires are the same.

True, I'm going with the TKO tread so I'm sure they'll be a bit different from my kellys, that and mine are bald, so there is tread to account for. I should be ok though, I'm running a 2 inch crank, AAL, and 1.5 inch body lift. The tire shop I checked with is 99% sure I'll be good to go. I'm checking one more shop for pricing purposes and then ordering tomorrow to be installed later this week. I'll post up results then.

Also BFG makes 3 in that size, the Baja T/A, the All Terrain TKO, and the Mud Terrain KM2. I believe you can get the General Red Letters in that size as well.
