Angry Can I Fit These? I Am Getting Mixed Info

I have a 2003 F-150 4x4 supercab step side. I want to know if I can fit 33-12.50-16 Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radials mounted on 16x8 or 16x10 rims. At stock height will this work? I have read the other forums and I have seen people say it will but all my local tire companys say they won't fit.... If they will what offset will I need? I want a plain black rock crawler type rim. As far as I can tell my bolt pattern is 5-135 and I need at least a 16 rim for caliper clearance(my stock rims are 16). I know this might be like beating a dead horse for you guys but I really need the help Thanks a lot. If anyone has pictures of 33"s on a stock F-150 send them to me.

Not certain if this helps but this guy has 33's on his and it seems to work fine, pretty tight though.https://www.f150online.com/forums/sh...hreadid=191161

Yes, you need at least a 16" rim, and you need to use a 5x135mm bolt pattern.

In any case, you shouldnt have any problems with that combo on the 16x8's, but the 16x10s might be a little wide so with that you may have to trim some valence, and maybe give the torsion bars a few cranks.
