Default Picture request?

Just wondering if anyone one is running 33" tires on their stock suspension 4x4 with a 17 or 18" wheels? Trying to get a picture in my head of how it would look and how much clearance is still there. I have a lariat 4x4 like how it sits right now I guess I could torsion it up a snug in the front but I don't want to do Torsion Keys or anything or a lift. Looking to run a wider wheel in the 17 or 18" size and have a 32 or 33" tire. Thanks for the help.

I run 275/70 17 Destinations. They come out to 32.2". Torsion bars tightened just a little to level it up some.
Plenty of clearance. My next tires will be 285/70 17. They are 32.8".

You'll have plenty of clearance. I'm running a 315 and I still think I have to much gap. You'll be fine.
