Topic: tire size

[yota18]

i was wondering if a 33-12.5/15 would fit on my 84 pickup with a 1.5 inch shackle lift. i have 31-10.5/15 on there right now.

33's would be too big you will need about 4 inches to clear them and not rub.

or a hammer and a saw

i have a 83 with negitive arch front springs and 33 12.5s only rubbing was on the plastic inner fender .. a little dremel solved that problem

hmm... I have 30s on the stock 85 with negative arched springs, and the tires are contacting the firewall bad enough to cut them up.

now if i was to put wheel spacers on would that help at all.

My 82 had 33s on it when i got it. and they didnt rub. no lift all stock suspension. front leafs where neg about 2 inches as well

On my 88 I ran 33x12.50's with no rubbing.
Wheel width and backspacing has a lot to do with it.

[yota18 [OP]]

what is a good size for the back spacing and how do you measure it

[brandon95]

U could run 32s, im runnin 32x12.50 15 on my 3rd gen with no lift it only rubs if im doin somthin stupid.
