Title: Anyone have a set of 33's on 8lug chevy wheels?
Post by: rollin_coal08 on February 25, 2013, 12:38:03 AM
I want to see if i can clear 33's on my truck and it just seams easier to throw a set on to see how it would look and clear.  i have 285/75/16's right now

Offset plays a big roll. I got a set here you can use to test fit.

285/75/16 are true 33's but my 33x12.5x16.5 are 32.6 inches tall.

looks good,  i dont want to do any cutting since the truck has new sheet metal, new paint, new bushwhacker flares, and rhino liner on the bottom.

Use torsion keys to lift.  Just crankin them up is so hard on front end parts. You can get rear blocks really cheap, and the key lift looks wayyy better.
