33x12.50 baja claws on 92 4runner?

I have a stock 1992 v6 4runner (automatic so it has 4.88 stock gearing) well it has a airbag lift in the rear but aside from that suspension is stock. My question is will I be able to fit these tires on my stock rims?

just because it has the automatic, doesn't mean its 4.88 stock gearing. You need to check the vin.

you wont fit those tires without a lift. 33x10.50 R15s fit stock with minimal trimming

Thanks for the reply, I will be doing a 2 inch body lift before attempting to fit them, but does anyone know if the stock rims will fit these tires? As far as checking the VIN is there anything easier then calling Toyota?

2" body lift will work with the 33x12.50s.

stock rims will work. but you can get some 15x8 cragar soft 8s for pretty cheap and make it look a little better

Yeah mine says the same thing. I have a 91 4Runner that I am running the same size of tire you are asking about and it has no issues. I also have a 3in BL on it.

The 15 inch rims were to small, the tires were R17's (should of realized that before trying to fit them) anyways I managed to pickup a set of 17 inch american racing rims from a 2005 4runner, costed me 400 dollars, sanded them and painted them black. Just got them put on and I didnt even need to install the body lift, so ive decided to go with a 1 inch body lift instead . Right now they rub a little bit when the wheel is fully cranked nothing to worry about though. Im thinking of putting 1 or 2 inch wheel spacers, anyone have any opinions on wheel spacers?

33 12.50s will fit with a lot of trimming. I gutted about 3" of my front bumper. They now clear... But have not been tested at driving,or off road yet.;
