33's on stock 93(I KNOW IT WILL RUB!)

Hey i've always read forums and stuff but I finally need some insight from someone lol. I currently have 31x10.5s on my stock 93, but I got some 33x12.5 because who cares. Anyway I don't care if it rubs... all I wanna know is how much lol. My torsion bars are cranked to the max already. I'm gonna cut the pinch weld obviously etc. So anyone know just like how much rub i'll be getting? It's a pavement princess too so now worries abt off-roadin. If heard just so many mixed feelings abt the rubbing? So it it actually THAT BAD? Like I can still drive right lol... Just not as tight right :p

Youll be fine. The backspacing on the wheel will determine how much of the tire gets stuffed into the fender when flexing.

My 31x10.5's rub on my 93 with 1" ball joint spacers if I get crossed up enough. I don't see how 33x12.5's wouldn't be a constant battle, but as MaK92-4RnR said, put em on and find out.

How tall is the front suspension with the torsion bar lift you did?

I have a 93 and wanted as little lift as possible to clear 33x12.5. My suspension ended up measuring 22.5” from center of axle to bottom of fender.
Wheels are 15x8-3.75bs, I have 1.5” bj spacers and some stock tbar adjustments, as well as pinch weld clearancing with a BFH and bumper trimming, and no sway bar.
Rear is the same height 22.5” with OME leafs, stock shackles and triangulated shocks (u-bolt flip); rear is the only place my tires still rub - at the rear of the bed fender near mud flaps, but only when I have some weight in the bed and I’m fully articulated.
I already had the BJ spacers on and some tbar adjustment- but to get tires to clear, basically I just drove my truck up a rock at the bottom of my driveway so I could flex the suspension as much as possible, while turning, to see where it would hit and then marked it and started adjusting tbars and then the pounding and trimming
