Tire sizes

engineman2 · May 18, 2012

Before someone jumps on me about this, I've done a search and have been following the thread 'opinions on 31x10x50 michelin ltxat2's' and I'm intrigued by it. I am lowering my M1008 since I use it as a work truck and DD but would like to retain some off-road ability for the hunt club and such. So, for clarification can you run a 33x10.5 or a 285/75 at stock height. I don't mind trimming the fenders a touch if need be. Thanks for any input!

The 33x10.5 are 15" tires for the Blazers. You need 16" tires for your pickup.

Also look at the bottom of this thread. There are several threads with the same content.

Here is one of them that may be of interest.

Oh the 33x10.5 only come in 15" rim sizes, I wasn't aware of that. I just threw it out there in case anyone didn't know how big a 285 was diameter wise. Thanks for the link as well, I've found similar calculators before but the side by side feature is nice. I was more curious about members who are running these size tires currently at stock height, if there are any, and their opinions of them.

285's are about 33" on a 16" rim.

Yes they are, but I'm curious to learn from those who are running 33's on a stock height M1008. If it's even possible to do. I'm still a little unsure after looking at a few threads.
