Ok so i was going to get 32x11.5 Tires for my '91 1/2ton but i found a guy/Buddy that is getting rid of some 33x11.5 BFG M/T's w/ 15x8 Black rock crawler rims that will fit my truck and he only wants $300...Now like i said i was going to get the 32" but can i fit the 33" ?

I was going to get leveling coils & 5000 Shocks but what if i get the leveling coils and a 1" Spacer (I forget who makes them)...Will this make the 33" tires fit w/o Rubbing for street use & Some tiny mud puddles? I figure if 32" tires will fit with 2" of lift that if i go with 3" lift i can fit 33" but will i still be able to get an alignment?

Plus i seen that rbrendel was breaking shocks so What size 5000's should i get for this set up? for a 2-4" Lift.. I really cant afford a Lift and i have no Place to install it so the only thing i can do i the Leveling coils and the Spacers.

Thanks.

 

If you go with the leveling coils and spacers, you will need axle pivot brackets to correct the alignment. With just the leveling coils you will be ok. We need to know if you have a 4x4 or 4x2. They don't make a 33 by 11.5, it's either 9.5,10.5, or 12.5 inches wide. 15x8 is big enough of a rim size and you will be ok with whatever width it is, just clarifing. If you have a 4x4, you can fit 32" tires stock, and the leveling coils will allow you to fit 33s fine. You do need to get 2-4" shocks i guess from what rbrendel says since broke his haha. Also, if you did get the spacer/coil combo, the front will be higher than the back, and you'd need to lift the rear. If you have a 4x2 you're going to need 4" of lift. Easiest way to do that is get a 4" suspension lift, or you will be getting a lot of headaches. There is no real cheap way to lift it 4" in a quality way.

My truck is a '91 1/2 4x4 Lariat w/351

I called him and they are 33x12.5 and he said he had them on a '92 1/2ton w/ a 3" Rancho lift.

Now with them being a 12.5" wide tire will they rub on the inside? If so will it really matter for road and alittle mud Use? Plus i have never seen an f150 with 33" tires with only leveling coils, Will it look like i stuffed these things under there & will there still be alittle travel?

Thanks

 

Look at my gallery, it has my stance. Stock 4x4 with 32s. 33 is only 1/2 all the way around and leveling coils will do ya just fine. The 12.5 will rub but not enough to cause a problem, you just won't be able to turn the wheel all the way. It will only rub on the radius arm. My 11.5s rub a little and its not really an issue because you arn't suppose to turn the wheel all the way anyway. They will look, a little stuffed but not to bad. You will have a fair amount of travel.

Look at the red truck, thats what yours will look like for height with leveling coils. The red truck was two inchs higher than the green 4x4 truck. So the red one will show you what kind of room you'll have. The red truck has the same 32s on it in the picture, so picture a tire that is a tad bit bigger around and you'll know what kind of room you have.
