Can I Fit 33's On My Stock Ranger?

Hey what up? Ok, heres the scoop, I have a 2000 XLT 4X4 OffRoad Pkg, right now, its got 31" - 10.50" on it. Can I fit 33"s on this without a lift or a t-bar crank. My old man is pretty set on NO LIFT policy, so im just trying to figure out what the biggest set of wheels i can fit on here without a lift or the t-bar crank? Any and all help is much appreciated!
Thanks and Peace from BG

Yes you can. 33/10.5/15 and 265/75/16 both fit on stock Edge and 4x4 models.

Good deed! I just called a tire store, and they told me, that a 265 would, should, fit w/o lift or rubbing, and that a 285, would need a lift, and will likely rub on a stock ranger. So i think im going with the 265's! So whats the damage gonna be for you, where you getting them from. They tellin me, $924.00 out the door, i can get them much cheaper off Summit.

This is someone's truck that is a member of the boards. I forget his name though. :x

I believe they are 33x1250R15 BFG AT KO's with only a t-bar crank.
