33" tires on stock 17" rims?

[MRB08]

Going with 33" tires on my 2008 chev, what will I need? Levelling kit? Will stock 17" rims work without rubbing?

Should have added, truck is stock Z71 LT.

More then likely a leveling kit or your tortion bars cranked up as well as a little fender trimming by either doing the small or big fender mod.

Hate to have to modify fenders, was thinking 2 1/2" leveling kit with 2" blocks in back. Mostly concerned about tire rub using stock 17" rims

More then likely your stock wheels are going to be your best bet for trying to clear the fender wells. But after that you run into the issue of hitting things in behind the fenders!

Also BTW modifying the inner part of the fender is very easy and not even noticable if done right!

Looked up the fender modification you mentioned, very easy to do.

Thanks Troy :thumb:

285/75/17 on H2's on mine (34.8" tall).I did the large fender mod and cranked T-bars up 1-1/2".Was just barely able to stay within alignment specs.
