2006 F150 - 33" Trail Grapplers
I'm looking to put 33" Trail Grapplers on my 06 crewcab because personally I think 35's are too big a tire for this size of truck. Does anyone know if I could fit 33's on stock ride height or would I have to go with a leveling kit? I think the stock "raked" look would look good with aftermarket tires and would like to go with it if possible. Also I'm looking at Fuel Hostage rims (17 inch) and want to have at least a 3 or so inch dish so the tires can stick out a bit. I'm new to trucks so any advice is appreciated (this is the look I want but not totally sure what all I should be worried about).

I believe you can will be able to put them on how it sits stock. A buddy had the 33" trail grapplers set up on his 04 and I dont think he had a leveling kit when he got the tires.

On a stock truck without leveling kit you can run 33X12.5" tires if it is a 4WD and 31X12.5" tires if it is a 2WD, using stock wheels.
On a leveled truck(2" kit and larger) you can run 35X12.5" tires on a 4WD and 33X12.5" tires on a 2WD truck, using the stock wheels.
Using aftermarket wheels you can run 35s on a 4WD if the wheels follow these guidelines:
-For an 8" wide wheel the backspacing is 5.5 inches.
-For and 8.5" wide wheel the backspacing needed is 5-6 inches.
-For an 9" wide wheel the backspacing is 4.5-5.5 inches.
For a 2WD truck and after market wheels you can run 33s with wheels that fit withen these specs.
-For an 8" wide wheel the backspacing is 5.5 inches.
-For and 8.5" wide wheel the backspacing needed is 5-6 inches
-For an 9" wide wheel the backspacing is 4.5-5.5 inches.
