I'm running 33x12.5 Pro Comp Mud Terrain's I picked up last week. I only have slight rub in rear under full compression when running lower tire pressure...My rig is a 91' runner 3vze sr5.

Ya know, i am not actually sure. They are on a truck I bought for the SFA so ill have to check!

Well my truck can't peel out or get second gear scratch every time either.. Hahaha, I also drive it like an old lady, cause seriously 33x12.50's+22R=Tortise In Disguise..

I run 33x12.5-15 BFG MT KM's on a 94 X-Cab pickup with Detroit locker in the rear and 4.88's and have very few issues with rubbing after hammering the pinch weld, trimming, torsion bar tweak, and adding 1.5" BJS / Shackles.
