wheels and tires?
Bought my first truck in december, 98 f150 xlt, extended cab 2wd. i was really looking for a 4x4 but i decided to buy this, maybe next year i will by a 4x4. i just purchased my lift. fabtech 3.5 performance, with the control arms, shocks, coils etc... i am going to install it this thursday when it gets here but my problem is i am going to driving around on my stock tires. i am wanting to put 15 inch wheels with 33's. i was wondering if 33's are possible without trimming. and if anyone knows of a place where a half broke college kid can get some wheels and tires.
thanks
thanks

wheels and tires?
Started putting my lift on last night, when i got to the lower ball joints, basically they were the biggest pain in the ***. but we got them out, installed the new ones, but it wouldn't go together. everytime i go to Oreilly auto parts the always give me the wrong parts. i guess its my fault for not checking. but i bought my new ones today. i was looking at wheels and tires at 4wheelparts.com but now i am wondering what my backspacing is and the bolt pattern. does it change with the lift kit? and does anyone know of a good tire that will last on road?
thanks

Sorry I don't have any experience with those types of lifts I just wanted to send out a formal invitation to you to come over and visit the Texas forum in the southern chapter
