33x10.50r15 - What Lift on Uncut?

I have tried searching around and have not come up with a conclusion. I am interested in running BFG 33x10.50r15 and curious what lift is appropriate? I currently have a 1" body lift from WH and debating on the 2.5" or the 3.5" WH suspension lift. My Bronco is uncut and is going to remain that way. Anyone running this set-up that can post a picture would be greatly appreciated.

I have 33x12.50s on 15x10 wheels and have a 1" body lift and 2.5" suspension lift and love the setup, it has a great stance. Sorry, not sure why the pic is sideways.

The 2 1/2" with body lift will be better I think.

Depends on wheels too. Stock wheels?

I'm running a 1"BL and a 2 1/2SL. My rims are 17" with 265x70x17 which is about a 32x10x17. I could easily get a 33x10.5 under there. My wheels are a 4" BS

Doghows72 - do your current tires rub in the back at all? Do you think 33" tires would rub?

Anyone else with 33x10.50 tires willing to post a picture???

I do not rub anywhere. Front or rear. Full turn no rubbing. I could easily go 33x10.5 with this lift and wheel combo.
I am running the exact suspension you are looking at. 2.5 WH

Thank you! Sounds like 2.5" WH lift will do the trick... although I am still tempted to do the 3.5" lift for the extra clearance.

The turquoise bronco looks awesome. That is the stance I am looking for.

I ran 33x10.50 BFG on stock wheels with a 3.5" lift. No rubbing :cool: The green one above looks like 31x10.50 to me. Just a guess though.

ncsubronc - I really like the stance of your Bronco. I would imagine that a 1" body lift and 2.5" suspension would be pretty similar to your 3.5" suspension (or at least the math is the same!)

Hey Casey check out "Nick's Trix" website. You can just google it.
He has two (2) LUBR's with 33x10.50x15 tires.

I went with 31x10.50x15 tires on stock rims. I have a 2.5" S.L. and 1" B.L.
I love the look and I am very glad I did the 1" B.L. and not just a S.L.
The B.L. is great for getting access when lying under it and helps fit the 351W under the hood. :)

Thanks Casey! Yea I would imagine that would work out to about the same using the body lift and suspension. :p

Wheel Backspacing will determine tire rub for you.

Stock steel wheel and 7" wheel with 4" BS will work.
