I am planning on putting 824 springs in my 1995 2WD SuperCab F150, could I run the BFG A/T's in a 33x10.50R15 on the stock wheels? With 33x12.50's everybody says that the bumper will have to be shimmed out and it rubs the radius arms, but I haven't been able to find solid info on the 33x10.50's. I had just planned on doing 31x10.50's, but I found a deal on some brand new 33x10.50's and wondered if it would work. I realize they are pizza cutters, but I don't mind the look.
I'm running 33x12.5 and have no problems on my F250 4x4. I also ran them on my stock Ford bronco and didn't mind them. On the bronco they will rub the radius arm only at full lock which didn't bother me at all.
I really like the 33x10.5R15 BFG's on my F150. I spaced my bumper about 0.5" and am running CC844 springs in a 4x4. Stock wheels. I might have a tweaked radius arm because there is slight rub during right hand turns but not left at the locks. I may not have needed to space the bumper but it's easy enough to do if it is needed.
I've got 33x10.50-15s on stock '95 F-150 rims on my '71 Bronco. The tires are fine on the rims. Of course my lifted Bronco is completely different from your truck, so that comparison isn't helpful.
I've got the DC 33x10.5R15s on all four corners. I shimmed out the front bumper and replaced the sagging front springs with Skyjacker 1.5" leveling springs. Added a set of F150 overload leafs in the rear to keep it level. No rubbing. https://www.ford-trucks.com/g/album/5440557

Thanks. Love the photo of your Bronco.

That's exactly the info I was looking for. Thanks!

Well, I think over the past year I've read every thread on the internet on 33x10.50's on an OBS Ford. I came to realize that most of the people who were running them had 4x4's, and most people also say that the 4WD sits 2" higher even with the same springs as a 2WD. The folks I found running them on a 2WD had regular cabs and 302's, which is a lighter setup than mine. I also read quite a few comments saying they just wouldn't fit.
So for anyone wondering, my 1995 SuperCab F-150 2WD 351W w/ A/C with MOOG 824 springs fits 33x10.50r15's on the stock wheels but it's tight. I removed the air dam and shimmed the bumper forward over an inch. I'm running load leveling shocks in the rear. The tires rub the radius arms at full lock, but it's easy enough to avoid that. I wish I had a little more clearance up front because I'm afraid I'm gonna stuff a tire into the fender if I hit a big rut off road, but we shall see.
I absolutely love the stance from the front. The white '06 is a 4x4 for comparison.
