hey i got my 96 explorer to fit 33s with no trimming what so ever. the only lift so far is TT & shackles which is about 2 1/2 inch of lift if u wanna see pics for proof let me know, o yea there also on my stock rims.

what are they 33x9.50?

 

[joehernandez86]

no they are 33 12.50 15s BFG AT's

Fitting them and "using" them are two different stories.

Where are those pics?

 

[sk1er17]

well better post those pics then..gotta see this. I had 2" TT +2" body lift and couldnt fit 33's standing on flat ground. With my new fenders though they fit beautifully...

you running fiberglass?

 

[sk1er17]

** the pics have to include the tires turned. I was able to fit them but when we turned they hit everything- including the tip of my nerf bar!

+, mine dont rub anymore even at full flex.. love the fenders!

2.5" of lift:

Then I tried trimming, Then I got fiberglass fenders.

 

[Redrig]

Damn I can barely fit mine. Get those pics up.

 

[sk1er17]

4" lift.

Didnt even attempt trimming- went straight to Perry's.

BTW Alec, yea man these tires are awesome- sticky as hell

[Robb]

Anyone remember the topic?!?!

 

[sk1er17]

yea but i dont see it happenin- he's gonna post a pic with his tires facing forward which dont mean anything...

and alec redrig and myself just made this thread amusing

 

[Alec]

I was just showing that it didn't work until I got my fenders and trimming a sh!tload. Worked well after that though.

 

[sk1er17]

I remember when Doug let me test fit his old one when i had TT with the body lift and i almost ripped my nerf bar end cap off- that right there tells me he cant have running boards or nerf bars.

Not to mention i just helped BHults put 32's on his with just a TT and he still had to trim... i gotta see some pics of this- it just dont add up

even later

How were your wheel bearings after that run? I have a 3" BL and 1.5" SL with 33's but I'm afraid to submerge my '98 IFS wheel bearings for the assembly is quite expensive to replace :fire:
