Do u have to, no. Check your axle code on your doorjamb to see if u have 3.55(h6 I believe) or 3.73 (b6). If 3.73 u won't have any problems. I have 3.55 and 33s and its not too bad. Do u have 6 or 8 cylinder? If 6 u may feel the bigger tires take a higher toll on mpg and performance. U could regear but it is a fairly costly ordeal.

You can get it done in programmable perameters use the closet size there won't be 33 use tire calculated to figure it out you should do it but 07 have a 32 inch tall tire stock anyways
