Wheels and tires
Hey folks I know this has probably been under a lot of discussion, but for a piece of mind I'll ask again. I just ordered 17" KMC rockstars for my 2006 F-350 dually, the question is whats the best spacer to run to fit 33x10.5's, and how much will the tires stick out of the fenders. I have 2 days to get tires for the wheels. where I live has strict rules on how far the tire sticks out passed the fender. I don't really haul heavy, pretty much tow my 22 foot speedboat, and possibly a car every now and then. if all else fails I will run the stock 245/75/17 tire size, but there again no one makes an aggressive tire in that size, any help would be appreciated.

A 33x10.5 is not much wider than a 245 (9.6" wide). It really depends on the backspacing/offset of the wheel. FWIW I run a 35x12.5 on 17x8.5" wheels with 4.5" of backspacing and they barely stick out at all.
