Oh good point. I forgot to mention that I pulled mine off due to minor rubbing.

How wide of 33's and your wheel width/offset decides if they clear.

hmmmm.... I thought we could only fit 32's, or is that just the runners? I know I can not have a tire wider than 11.5, or it will rub.

You can run 33 x 10.50's on stock height, but if you want to go to 33 x 12.50 you either need a body lift or suspension lift.

Wouldn't need to re-gear anything? I want to run 33's as well with a 2-3" BL.

I would run 488 gears for 33's to put you close to stock range

Why would returning to near stock tire/gear ratio be bad for the highway?

I'm considering selling mine, but most guys out here drive huge lifted chevy's or dodges, and these rims don't work on their trucks

Holy Cross.

I didn't include the picture that follows that sequence. I got through that, then blew a bead on the exit. After the reseat, I drove the exit, but after holding up the group for that long, it felt like a small victory.
