That's kind of what I was trying to avoid but I guess you have to do what you have to do.

I agree. I honestly was going to go with 35's, but, after seeing how close the 33's were, I'm glad I went with those instead. I did not feel like doing any trimming to be honest.

The room is there, but, just be careful if you put the 35's on because if you cut the wheel all the way to the left or right, it will rub.

Itll work and be fine offroad. Did it on my other truck. 35x12.50x20 Trails and I trimmed a bit. Nothing like overly crazy but a decent amount.

[MENTION=120634]DavidSchlot822[/MENTION] Had the same size with -12 rims and trimmed pretty heavy but still had no issues.

I was thinking about PTMing the grille surround only, but, not exactly sure yet on what I want to do exactly. We'll see with time I suppose.

If you PTM anything then we will literally have the same exact truck because that's what I'm going to do is PTM grill and bumpers and mirrors

It is do-able, but yeah you have to do some pretty aggressive trimming.

Here's how it looked
