33"s on a 2005 4x4?

Will I be able to put 33"s on my 2005 SCrew 4x4 without any rubbing problems?
I don't want a leveling kit or anything like that, just 100% stock.
Does anybody have any pictures of what it will look like?

You Shouldn't have a problem fitting the 33's. I put a 2.5" leveling kit on my 2wd and I have no problems with the 33's i just installed!

check out the pics of the 33s in my gallery!

A leveling kit levels the truck by lifting the front suspension a couple of inches or lowering the rear a couple of inches. Most leveling kits for the front consist of spacers for the coilover shocks. Leveling kits for the rear consist of lowering shackles. Most people who want an aggressive off road look with all terrian or mud tires lift the front. Most people who want a street look with large 20 to 24 inch wheels lower the rear.

if you look at your truck the front end sits considerably lower than the rear of the truck. a leveling kit is a simple kit that lifts the front to give it a more level look. it is usually a simple kit that only cost less than 150 bucks. it is usually just spacers above the coils in the front. you can run 33's without the leveling kit but it is up in the air if you can run 35's without it. I am not sure if any one here has put 35's on without the leveling kit. I like a slightly lifted truck but not alot so I really like how the leveling kit made my truck sit up a little higher and more level which just seemed right.
