Default Tire/Wheel Size

Will a tire measuring 33x14.50-15 on 15x10, 5x5.5" bolt pattern wheels fit my stock 1998 Stepside Offroad 4x4 F-150?

I'm going to say no for several reasons:
  1. 5x5.5 bolt circle is wrong you need 5x135mm - good luck, there's a very limited selection in that pattern
  2. I'm pretty sure a 15" is too small and will impact the calipers
  3. The rims width combined with that backspacing, combined with that fat of a tire will have you rubbing in no time. I've installed a 2" lift, done some trimming and removed the mudflaps on my '03 to fit 305/65/R17's (33x12.00x17) on 17x9 rims with 5" BS and it still rubs the valance a bit.
