No way in hell you will run a 13.50 on a 12" wide wheel at stock or lowered higth...You need to understand how offset works before you try doing that, on a 99-04 you can run a 20x12 and 33x12.50 with minor trimming along with an add a leaf up front, 08+ you can do it without any mods and 05-07 seem to have the worst rubbing issues...My info comes from first hand experience....add a wider tire to the equation will result in needing more lift.

If you trimmed you're good, bottom of fenders and bottom of bumper is what it hits....I think 13.50s could fit in your case

those are 12.50's?? they look wider than that...

They are 12.50's on a 12 wide wheel.

I knew you had run the wider setup before and was hoping you would chime in. As I stated in a previous post I expect to do a little trimming of the bumper and fender well, but not a ton.

already trimmed both areas....i could probably fit 15.50's with my hackjob LOL



33's or 35's?

33's... There are definitely more of the wider sizes in a 35" tall tire than the 33" tires. Plenty of brands to chose from for 33x12.50 that I have seen as well.

33x13.50 is VERY limited. At least in 20" rim diameters.

limited but I REALLY like the looks of that exact setup...

If you were to go with 33s there is a lot less sidewall, and with such a wide wheel those two combined will make you have some crazy bump steer. I have 305/45/22s on a -44 and I have some major sway. Youll never see that amount of sway but it's still something to think about before buying anything. It makes the truck a lot less easy to drive. How does your truck drive as it sits now?

Nitto 420. It just started when I put the wheels on. With stock 18s it was tight. Every little crown on the road sways me. I need to put my the dual stabilizers on.
