what size tire before lift needed on 1980 model- will 33's fit -if not how much lift is needed

I had 31s on my 80 with no lift. I think 33s may require some cutting??

I've had 35s on my '80 with maybe 2" of lift and they barely even rub. A shackle lift or some old man emu springs would be just right I think.

Depending on backspacing and rim width used, you can fit 33's w/o a lift.

Yes, I have had 33x12.50s on my '80 stock with minimal rubbing.
