74 Bronco uncut: Will 33x10.5or15's fit on stock rim w/ 3.5" lift?

[sellitall]

I just got my 3.5" WH kit and was wondering if i could leave it uncut with the suggested tire/rim combo? I could do a 1" BL if need be, but want to keep the uncut look.

It.s width that is the issue, not height. I think those tires are a little wide for stock rims. If they do fit expect to need to roll the rear fender lip.

The fronts will rub if the suspension cycles. Probably clear OK for driving around the parking lot, Expect hard rubbing offroad if the springs are soft enough for a good ride.

The stock rim is 6". I've put a 12.5" tire on a 8" rim too many times to count. It's still a 4.5" difference.

 

[Madgyver]

I'd say yes...... I fit 30"s on my green77 uncut, no lift....
3.5" suspension lift will get you more room than what a 33" tire will need which is only 1.5"


Not mines but here is a great example..

I currently have 33x10.5 on 15x8 rims. I have since added a lift but at no lift it was fine.

3,5 lift with one inch body lift works perfect on uncut broncos, i have been running that for years with 33;10;50 super swapers good luck

 

[sellitall]

It's not going to be a trail rig, but I'd like to take it hunting/fishing etc. Probably not going to see the rocks.

originally mine had 3"KbarS lift with 31x10.5x15s and it didn't rub, but you couldn't go any wider. I really dont' know about taller(33s) It flexed well with 31's.

Do you have a hard top With the 33 and is it top heavy? My concern would be rollovers.

I just put the same lift/wheel/tire combo on my uncut. 3.5" CAGE, with 33 x 10.50 BFG muds on stock steel wheels. Havent had the chance the ride it yet, still have to finish up a few things, but from the looks of it I'd say as long as you arent wheelin hard you should be ok. I may do the 1" body lift some day down the road as well. Didnt have any problems mounting the tires on the rims either, and they look awesome.

 

[73stallion]

this is just a 3.5" lift with 31x10.50's on 7" rims. there's plenty of room for another inch of sidewall all the way around.

The stock rim is 6". I've put a 12.5" tire on a 8" rim too many times to count. It's still a 4.5" difference.

that may be, but the proportions are different. that same 4.5" makes a bigger difference to the narrower wheel. IMO, I'd go with a wider wheel.
My original plan was to have my stock wheels widened, cuz I love stock steelies in black with a chrome ring and lugnuts. anyways...
I've got an oldschool 2.5" suspension, no body lift, and can stuff 32x11.5-15s. the lip on the rear is rolled up, of course. but on the front, it can and does rub when going through a corner with bumps. I don't worry too much about it. I just tried to post a pic...but got an error.

 

[br0nc0xrapt0r]

yes it will fit.

Hey Mad have you submitted that pic to Jon for the calendar yet?
And 73stallion did you know your rear bumper is on upside-down?

If the answer is yes to both, I'll shut up now and end the hijack.
