Hell yeah! Sits a little higher with the 33's.. it looks awesome.

Already got some compliments on the new look today... Despite the rusty-ness of my truck

 

It looks very good now. I wouldn't say any of those tires are in very good condition though. There is too much dry rot cracking. Just curious. What's the date code?

 

Make sure you keep an eye on your brake lines up front. Sometimes the 33's will rub on them and if you don't notice you will go to hit your brakes one day and bam nothing. Looks good.

 

Thanks!

Yeah they have weather checking, a little worn too. They'll be fine as a summer set for now. Had them all balanced before they were mounted and no shaking driving on the highway 70 MPH.

The date code is 09/91.

Thanks!

And I'll keep an eye on that, already thinking about getting new brakes front and rear, maybe I'll replace the brake lines as well.

 

If you do replace the lines I would recommend getting some stainless steel braid lines, that way if you do rub one it won't hurt it. I've only had issues with them rubbing when you make a sharp turn.

 

truck looks great

 

Yep that's the plan. Same here, they only rub on sharp turns. They were rubbing on the front bumper, but I spaced it out to fix that.

Thanks!

 

I do like the look and stance with 33's. Your truck " Rusty " looks great with 'em. I did have 33's on mine for a while . The guy's have the tire and wheel fitment issue covered. I have an E4od Tranny in truck , I reset my PSOM constant because it was going in and out of OD too much. Even doing that it was only a little better. I just did not like the way it shifted, add to that I have ta 3:55 gear set so for me it was not a great ride.
IMO, 33's work better with a 5 sp. But everyone has different opinion's. I do agree with you and all the guy's those sneaker's do look great , just my 2cents. '92

 

Hey thanks a lot for the compliment!

I have an AOD in my '92.. with 3:55's. Haven't reset the PSOM, and I don't think I'm going to. I seem to keep up with other drivers going the speed limit and didn't seem to affect the shifting much.

The before pictures were of the truck LAST summer with the 31x10.5x15's on, but I had the 235/75/15 winter tires on and had just went from those to these 33's. I test drove it right after I had the 33's mounted and I was surprised at how little it changed anything. It still feels like the 235's are mounted on the truck... And I was expecting for it to be bog down pretty bad on acceleration but that isn't the case.

Maybe it's because I don't have the added weight of the front TTB axle, transfer case, etc. that 4x4's have

 

Be cautious with those on the highway. I'd be more than leery of a blowout. It's typically recommended to replace any tire that is over 6 years old...10 years tops. You're riding around on tires that are nearly of legal drinking age and are older than your truck. Just be careful.

 

my 88 F150 with the 1 ton coils springs up front and 3/4 leaf springs in the back ran 33/12.50/15 BFG's on stock aluminum wheels and never once rubbed even at full lock. The wheels came off a 70's model big bronco and were pretty rare but they worked flawlessly

 

Oops, the 09/91 date code is when my truck was made.

Not sure how old the tires are, I would imagine a few years but highly doubt they're over 6.

EDIT: the date code of the TIRES is the 9th week of 2009.
