Talking 33 11.50/16 Super Swamper Thornbirds

I have a 98 Ford F150. I am about to order a chrome brush guard, chrome nerf bars, and series 118 chrome brush guard. I cant decide which tires to get. First I wanted 35 12.50 and a 3 inch body lift, but now i kinda want some 33 11.20/16 Thornbirds. I love the looks of these tires. Do yall think that they will fit and look good.

I have to order my stuff befor christmas and time is running out PLEASE HELP

Hunt-Dawg they should fit. If I remember right a 285/75/16 is about a 32/11.50 give or take. Also the thornbirds are really crappy on reoad tires. Your handling will drop drastically. They also tend to make your truck want to wander. As far as the looks, I think they would look pretty cool.

My 2 cents worth

Thanks for the advice?

I went ahead and got my thornbirds. I love them!!!!! I got 16x8 Eagle Alloy series 146 CHROME wheels. I also got a CHROME brush guard and CHROME nerf bars. I am not braging or nuthin but I have a pretty bad truck for a 15 year old with a hardship license.
