I THINK you need stock backspacing, which is like 6" if I remember correctly. Give your question a little bit and someone can tell you a definite answer. Why 33's instead of 35's out of curiosity?

PAGING WANDELL!!!!!!!

The oem wheels are 7.5 inches wide with 5.5 inches of backspacing. I'd suggest a 20x9 inch wheel with 5 to 6 inches of backspacing and some 305/55-20 (33x12.50) tires if you have a 4x4.

PM me if you are interested in these? I am selling them since I just bought new tires and wheels. They are 20x8.5 Wingmans.
