Anyone recommend 33x12.5 tires on the stock 15x7 wheels?
Ideally i want to get 15x8 steel wheels but having a tough time finding a set right now and since my lift is ready to be installed iam thinking about putting my 33x12.5 bfg m/t's on the stock rims.
I just dont know if the tires will be dangerously too wide for the wheel or if the backspacing on the rims will create major rubbing.
Anyone else run this combination?
thanks

I ran 33x12.5s on the 15x7 sr5 rims before. They buldged a bit lol...but still perfectly wheelable and felt solid on the street. Just dont run em over 35 psi or else the center wont last as long.
My 2 cents.

I run 33x12.5 Durango MT's on the SR5 rims, I also run 30lbs to keep the footprint flat. It keeps the wear even, but greatly reduces the already crappy mileage.
It rubs a bit, I wouldn't recommend it. Either go 33x10.5 or get wider rims and better offset!
