Another annoying tire fitment question..
 
Been searching for an answer for a long time.. tires will be in tomorrow, its either I take over a $1300 hit, or I say I don't want them. Only got one chance at it so someone who knows the answer for sure, help! I've asked a similar question before and got both yes they'll work and no, you'll have to trim. The wheel specs is what's making this question hard to answer.
I have a 2000 4x4 F150 Supercab XLT with 17x9 KMC XD Spy wheels with -12 offset and 4.53 of backspacing. Will 33x12.50x17 Mickey Thompson MTZ's fit with just cranking the torsions til level or will I have to do some trimming?

For sure they'll fit with no trimming?! will I have to crank the torsion til 24.25 to fit them? Or can I get away with cranking them like 23 or so?

23 should clear fine but 24.5 will level it out

Well this question gets asked every other day dude which is why its tiring for members to answer it alot. if you have a valence and tbars cranked they will rub on the valence when turning. You might just need to trim the valence a little
