Will go on with no troubles. They may balloon a bit in the sidewalls, but it's doable. You may have rubbing issues because of the stock rims backspacing, I rub the radius arms with 10.50 wides at full lock

Yes, I'm aware of the rubbing. What will fit on the rim better a M/T or an A/T?

Default Works well...

My 90 has the bullet hole wheels, and I have 33" BFG All Terrain TA KO tires. My front suspension sags a lil so they rub a lil, but hoping new springs (or a lift kit) will solve that problem. Plus they look awesome!!! Stock size tires look rediculous IMHO

Agree that stock tires look ridiculous. If you guys went up to 33", do you have the gears/transmission adjusted? I never got mine adjusted but will on my next truck since it throws off the speed and odometer.

i've put 38 14.50R15 on the factory steel wheels before. but that was lifted truck, a factory truck will fit 33's if you dont plan on doing much off road, i've had the 31's on my factory truck stuffed into the fenders and rubbing everything.
