so im sure this question is floating around in this forum some where but cant seam to find it. can 33" a/t's fit on a stock ranger with t-bar crank? im not sure how wide they are im getting them for free so wont b**ch. i know depending on the width i will rub but will i clear them due to hieght on just a t-bar crank.

 

if they are 10.5 wide they will fit...

 

You will have to do a little trimming on the valance if they are bigger than 10.5".

 

yea but hardly any trimming i have them and mine are 12.5

 

Minor rubbing should look good though

 

Drop $200 and buy a BL

 

You have the stepside though.

 

Didnt know that made a diff

 

doesnt really make a diff. 33x12.5 fit fine in the rear stepside or fleetside
its the front that will rub

 

And remember, if you get a 12.5.. there will be a big problem rubbing if you take it offroad and try flexing.. if you have fender flares, it may rip them right out of their sockets..


I agree with the above post.. perhaps hold onto the tires, and then drop 200 into a 3" bodylift =)

 

Your front fenders are different, you dont have flares up front do you? Thats where mine rubbed at.

 

no i dont have flares but the front kinda flares out a little but none that i can take off.

 

33's will fit fine with a t bar crank my 33x15x12.50 fit fine only rubbed when i was off roading at speed

 

I had 33x12.50 on 15x8 rims and the only time it rubbed was when i was wheeling and it was flexed out. but like said above if you put a 3" BL on you will have no problem using that size tire.

 

If you would take the time to read the Sticky thread at the top you will have all the answers to tire sizes!

 

a buddy of mine just put them on his with just the tbars cranked up and it worked fine. hes about to do a body lift just for the extra wheel well clearance though. needs it for offroad

 

my 33x12.50s rubbed when turning into parking spaces. but it was only on the mudflaps

 

Lol.....i'm double lifted w/ 12.50s and rip the flares off still. lol.

 

Im running a 285/70-17 and Im rubbing a little bit on the inner fenderwell

 

I've had my 33X12.50 Mickey Thompson MTZs on both my 99 (fleetside w/flares) and my 03 stepside. They didn't rub on the front after a T-Bar crank and a minor trim of the valence. On the 99 they would pull off the rear flares off road. Off road in the 03 stepside no problems, no flares. My wheels are 15X8s.

Throw em on the truck and see how they fit. If you have problems off road save up for a body lift.

 

Most of the people dont take their trucks off road so that is probablly why they say they have minimal rubbing. If they were to give it one good flex they would probablly rip something off their truck!
