Smile Help

I have a 2000 Durango that I put 33 12.5 R15's on, well kinda totaled that baby, But I have a 98 4x4 Ford truck, so if I take the 16' rims off and replace with a set of 15' rims off my older 90 Ford which will fit my 98 Ford, will my 33's work without a lift or level kit. would like opinions before I go through the trouble of changing rims..tires....

A 15" wheel may or may not clear the brake calipers. You will have to take one of the wheels off your 90 and try it in all 4 positions on your 98 to see. If they clear, 33's should be okay without a lift or level

Weight requirements call for more lug nuts per wheel. The bigger the truck the more lugs.
