Tire size on uncut Bronco

[jasonb]

Does anyone know if 33x10.50r15 tires on factory 1995 Alcoa wheels will fit an uncut Bronco with a 3.5 inch lift? I have the James Duff monster long arm suspension. The kit has the big bumpstops, but I don't want to be banging off the stops all the time. It will be primarily street driven, and some sand dunes from time to time. I am not planning on running a body lift, but could possibly go with a 1 inch bl if necessary. Thanks.

Jason,
I ran 33x9.5 BFG with a 3.5" suspension lift (no body lift) with no issues, even trail riding.

Thanks for the input! I think I will go with 31x10.50s. There is a new set of
33x10.50r15s on craigslist in my area on aluminum wheels for $650, but I am worried they might hit the leading edge for the rear wheel opening. Great looking Bronco by the way!

I couldn't run 33x9.5's with a 3.5" lift except on the road or a nice trail. Any flexing and the inner fenders would rub...hard. Front were already trimmed at the leading edge...
stock offset on the rims.

I am thinking this is the combo that I want to go with. Do you have any pics of your bronco with this setup? Thanks

Wheel backspacing and STIFF suspension are the key to running that width tire... as I couldn't run 33x9.5" on factory backspaced 8" wheels when I tried that back in '86...

These are 33x10.50's on 15x7 slots and a 3.5" lift.

Nice looking bronco. I like the stance it has with 33's. I dont want to cut my fenders. Just trying to get a combo that I will like and that will work.First thing I want to do is the lift just need to know what I want to go with first. I know there is are other things I will have to do and consider with a 3.5 lift. Just want to make sure that If I do decide with a 3.5 lift that I can do everything.

Can you articulate the suspension without rubbing the tires?

I have a 2.5" lift on my lubr. I'm doing more green to blue trails and would really like to go with some larger tires. I'd prefer 10.5" wide tires over 9.5".
