Default Tire Width
I'm looking to go with a wider 33' tire on a 16" wheel. Has anyone fit anything wider than a 305 without a lift (tbar lift is fine). If so, what wheel offset, and tire?

I have same size as alrock, I haven't noticed any rubbing issues. Might be happening but so subtle I'm not noticing. I will check during the "clean up" today and let you know.

There will be a bit of rubbing, but it's no big deal, it just gives a nice little polishing on the sway barit was doing this with my 33's and it does it with my 35's just a bit higher on the sway bar

I'm not anticapating on having any rubbing on them. I'll usually air down the tire when off road, I'll let you know I'll be at Kinzlow's in TN on the 15th-17th. I heard there are some really tought trails out there.
