Largest tires without a lift????

im curious if anyone knows the largest tire size that will fit without a lift on a 2wd. Id consider a AS level up front if needed? Im looking at 33" IS THAT POSSIBLE?

You can fit a narrow 33 inch tire (33x11.50) like a 285/70-17, 285/65-18 or 285/55-20 without a lift by using the OEM wheels. They will look much better with a leveling kit however.

Ive seen a guy CRAM 35x12.5x20 toyo m/t under his 2wd KR with the 20" stockers. It was insane to see. And looked surprisingly good. But he had quite a bit of trimming on the back of the fenders up front. Overall, well worth it. But i would recommend wandell's suggestion.

He said that he had no problem. This was a few years back. I wish I would have poked around underneath it a little. It was insane. Like an inch of clearance up front. It looked pretty sweet. But again.. I would not recommend. Ha. 33" is perfect.
