    I have a 2000. I don't want to get new rims at this time. Is this possible, and if it is will it look goofy?

    You can but they will likely rub numerous places depending on what amount of lift you have and will bulge considerably around the edge of the rim.

    You could get narrower tires, like 33x10.50. That would solve both issues, not having to get new rims, and avoid most rubbing issues.

    You can but I wouldn't recommend it. Like said above they rub and I did that once and it wears out differently two. I eventually put them on better wheels and they vibrated bad from wearing bad on the stock ones.
    Hope this helps.

    They will most likely rub uca and not fit right on rim. I wouldnt out them on anything under 8" wide with enough backspacing to clear ucas. My 32/11.5/15s rub the uca on stock rims as it is

    After putting wheel spacers on I had to do a little trimming, so I think i got the rubbing issue fixed. I am about to get a toytec 3" lift and I think the 33X12.50 might do pretty good? what do you think. I think the 32's might look a bit small. My bfgoodrich KO 32X11.50 is overall smaller than my Wild Country MTX tires yet they are 32x11.50 are well. I thought of getting dick cepek fun country or KO2's

    You are correct, I thought about this a while. Unfortunately the tires I really want are Dick Cepek fun country and they don't make 33X10.50, only 33X12.50. Bfgoodrich KO2's do make 33X10.50 however.

    that's what I was worried about :(...I think depending the make of the tire, it won't be as bad? e.g. I had mud tires that were 32X11.50 and now I have bfgoodrich KO's 32X11.50, and the bfg's are dimensionally smaller, in width and height. So i figured If i got the 33X12.50 bfg KO2's it won't look bad at all. Although my heart is set on dick cepek fun country right now

    On my 02 I had the toytec 3" and ran 33x12.5s on stock wheels. I trimmed a little and ran 1" wheels spacers(needed to clear the UCA) and never had a issue besides wearing funny. Then I went to ultra 164s in black and got rid of the wheel spacer. Never once had issue with control arms after that. Rubbed minor on frame when flexed and turning all the way but not bad.
