Just had some 33X12.5X15 BF Goodrich M/Ts put on my 96 v8 X. No rubbing! I was planning on getting the 33X10.5X15s so i didnt need to replace my rims but I talked with these guys a long time and they assured me the 12.5 M/Ts would be fine on my stock 7" rims (but not the K0s)... I am a bit leary... what do you guys think? I will be watching them for a while. I'm getting the alignment done in a couple days but I'll take some pictures next week and post them.

Koool !

What kind and how much lift do you have , to fit those 33's ???
 






I only did the TT and Shackle w/ add-a-leafs and the 2" PA body lift

Drove it home yesterday and noticed a decent shake once i got up to 50 or 55... Its a 96 and it didnt shake when i first put my old tires on (AT/K0s) so i dont think its the common 91-94 shake. I have an alignment scheduled for tomorrow so hopefully that fixes it. Something else I noticed last night... I talked the guy into giving me free siping if I bought the extra warranty and I noticed that while most of the siping is unnoticeable unless u really look, some of the sipes are pretty wide... anyone ever had their tires siped before?
