33's stock?
My truck has 33x12.50s with plenty of clearance in the front and rear. They were on it when I purchased it but I cant tell if their is a lift. I did not expect that much clearance being stock. It could use a leveling kit but there is alot of clearance. Is my truck lifted a little? There is not a body lift and no blocks under the leafs...

There may have been a add-a-leaf installed or 2, how many leaf springs are in the pack?

Could have and older 2-3" lift on it . AS the 33" tire would fit but would be not much clearance around them.

They could have put 2" lift coils and had springs re arched. ?? Good question

Do the tires rub on the inner fender? always thought 32's were the largest stock size tire you could put on a truck without lifting it.

They dont rub unless I REALLY crank the wheel hard. I have a pretty good turn radius.

You might have a stock suspension, I have 35" in the back and 32" in the front, and it looks to me that 33" would fit pretty easy in the front.
