tires too big?
ok so i put a set of 33x12.50's on my stock 15" rims. i have an 86 150 4x4 and as i figured they rub the radius arm. any suggestions as what to do to fix this. i was thinking i could handle a little rub but it touches sooner than i thought it would. they look real good on the truck withotu a lift i dont want to take them off.

12.50's are much to big to be on the factory sized wheels. Yes, I know they fit but all manufacturers I've seen recommend a minimum of an 8.5" wide wheel. Look into getting some wider rims with maybe just a bit less backspacing than the factory ones.

yeah you rnot supposed to mount on a wheel anythign more than 4" skinner than the tire i was wondering if anyone used those wheel spacers that you bolt on and they give you new studs adn like an inch of spacing
