c load rating. weighs 8 lbs less than the e rating.Did you buy passenger (P) rated 33s? Do you recall their weight? Not that you had to choose, but I'd prefer a C load 31" rather than a P load 33" tire if use will include rocky and branch laden areas, e.g. the West. 33" tire will give you 1.25" of add'l clearance from stock (30.5" tire).
It'll be interesting to see what you think about the performance hit, acceleration from a stop, braking distance and MPGs. Since you have the lift and tires pretty much done at the same time, it'll be tricky to know what variable is more responsible for differences.
I await my truck and have pretty much decided to swap to 32" C load AT tires right of the bat and do no more, no level or lift. Probably Firestone Destination XT, C load 255/75/17 since they're only 4 pounds heavier than stock Hankook ATMs on FX4 trucks (and something like 6 pounds lighter than Toyo, Falkens, etc in C load). I'll live with that awhile and see what limitations reveal themselves to warrant a lift. I'll be camping/exploring/road tripping off grid (ugh, I hate the term 'overlanding' as its so Gucci and poseury these days). So, not rock crawling. We'll see if near stock approach and departure angles are adequate or not.
