    Default 33X11.50X17's?

    has anyone put these on like an 03-06 model, yet, without using a lift kit, suspension lift or anything! im planning on putting this size of tires on my gmc, & was wondering! i have lifted/raised the front 2" to be level with the rear! so, i think i can fit this size tire, but may have to cut/trim my front bumper a a bit, there in front of the tire! let me know guys! thanks, carl!

    My neighrobr put those on his 1500 HD (8 lug rim). He had to trim a little bit at the bottom of the wheel well. He did the trim at home and I coulnd't even tell. You may neded to slightly adjust the torsion bars but most tire dealers say that 33's or 32.5's will fit under the Chevy with little or no mods.

    Its a 33x12.50 pretty much...


    the rim width and offset is what makes the difference..
    Ur truck would fit 35's on stock wheels..

    is that with like a 3" suspension lift, i just got mine level pretty much! its been lifted 2" in fron to level out with the rear, i dont think that it would handle 35's with stock height! would it? nice gto by the way, i drove a yellow 04 goat a few weeks back, i liked it, alot! thought about trading the gmc in on it!
