I have an uncut 75 with a 2" lift, drum brakes. Can I get 33x10.50's under it? I know the common tire seems to be the 33x9.50 but I can't seem to find any available. I will also be buying rims at the same time so any advice would be awesome. I have two sets of 15" wagon wheels now one a 3.5 offset and another set at 4.5 and they both fit fine, I just want a 5th for the spare so I want all new. So I'm assuming the bigger offset would benefit me more with the wider tires? I'm also not against going to 17" rim or larger if more options are made available to me. This will also be my road driver. The 69 also in the garage is another question at another time :)

I think 31x9.50x15 are the most you can fit without rubbing on a 2" lift uncut

I have an uncut with a Duff 2.5" lift. I am running 30 x 9.50's....I am pretty sure I could fit a 31 x 10.50 but I think it would rub during wheeling. I am not sure if an off-set wheel would make a difference.

I'm running 34x9.5 on a 3.5" lift. It self clearanced (rubbed). When I wear these out, I will be trying to figure out the backspacing needed to fit 10.5 or wider tires in there.

The PO cut out the rears but I have the pieces so I plan on putting them back in. I don't plan on doing a body lift. (my other rig is 3.5" lift with 2" body cut outs with flares for my off road version) My hopes are to keep this one more tame and uncut and for daily diving non off road. Seems like 31x9.50 is the answer which is fine, also moving to the 16" rim isn't a problem

There are a couple of members on here that have those on. The 32x9.5 I hear are fine, but I have heard that the 34x9.5 have had bad reviews for coming apart.

cool I will look further into those then. I was thinking about more of an AT tire since it will be road use only but I love the look of a MT on the broncos
