Installing 33x12.5 17 on a 2022 Tremor

[AndyTremor]

I have a 2022 Tremor with some mods already. Such as a 2.5 inch leveling kit, barricade HD front stubby bumper with a 12000-LB wench. Have made a set of removable front sway-bar links. I'll include some photos.

I am looking to put a set of 33x12.5 on my stock Tremor rims. I think I need to change out the intrusion bars with a set of ReadyLift bars. (Have already ordered them) I also believe I need to add a set of Dynofit 1.5 Hubcentric wheel spacers.

Do I need to do anything else to get the tires to fit?

I can confirm that 33x11.5 on stock rims with 1.25” spacer works just fine.
This doesn’t answer your question though. The extra 1” width of the tire might interfere when the steering is turned to full lock. I would measure the remaining space I have for you, unfortunately I have my winters on right now.
If it does work for you, I’m wishing I went with the 12.5” width, as it will look bad a$$!

I’m doing the exact same size but going to a zero offset wheel and I’ll only need the crash bars out so it doesn’t rub

I have no problems with 285/75/17 I think that equals 34s"?
of all things it rubs on the plastic air dam LOL
Roush rims and I have no idea if there is an offset?

That’s with 1.25” spacers on the front and 1.5” on the back.

Nice, what size tire do you have?

I wanted something with white letters, that’s why I went with Mickey’s.

Thanks for the information. My biggest concern is the rub with the top of the tire and the upper control arm, but by my calculations, it should be fine with the 1.5 spacer. The other is indeed the rub at full lock. I think changing the intrusion bars out should be enough. If needed, I could just remove them entirely.

I am also in the middle of snow season here as well. When you get the chance, could you snap a few pics of your clearance at full lock on both the front and back of the tire? Thanks.

Sorry, I won’t be able too. I’ve since changed the rims.
