Question for the X gods  . If I install a 2.5"/3" leveling kit on my 2000 PSD X will 33x12.50-16's or 305x70-16's on 16x10 rims will they fit. By fit I mean, not any or very little rubbing. I'm running 285's now with no rubbing, but on stock rims. If anybody has pics with this I would like to see them. Also any pics of the rims people are running. Tires I would like to run is the Interco Trxus SST A/T's. |

Honestly, I cannot think of any situation that would make 33x12.5x16's rub with a 2.5"-3" levelling kit. The height of your 285's now is 32.8! (found under technical help on DiscountTire.com)! So, technically, you are only adding .2 inches in overall height! I would even test fit some 35's on there to see if they clear. But, as for 33's, you will be perfectly fine. Just remember the tire height of the 285's, so with a levelling kit, those 33's won't seem so big.

I'm aware that 285's are 32.8, but I'm wondering about 33's or 305's mounted on 16x10 rims. I'm afraid the might rub, but just not sure. Any help on this would be great. |
