Will 33's fit?

fr0st_m0nkey · 01-21-2009, 11:52 AM

Under 1.5" spacers ($20) and a 2" body lift ($120)? Seems like the cheapest way to get a lot of lift out of my jeep and seeing as how I'm a broke college student it's looking pretty good right about now. Also, can I use my stock TJ wheels on some skinny 33s (10.5, 11.5?) or is the backspacing off too much making it look goofy?

It will look goofy with those skinny tires IMO.

Because of the backspacing or because of how they look? I saw some here that have been painted black and don't look too shabby.

33x10.50's with stock wheels will look fine with that lift.Where are you getting spacers that cheap?

that isnt your jeep above is it??

to answer your questions has you can put a 33x10.5 or 11.5 on your stock wheels. "3 lift is plenty for 33s, personaly i would only do a "1BL with a "2BB and throw the 33s on there. you may have some rubbing issues when turning, sometimes washers will fix that or spacers

i know it is, but the OP has posted that same pic in several threads now??

No I found it in the painted rims pic request thread I'm hoping someone will see it and post pics of their ride with similar wheels but lifted.

why not post a pic of your jeep and maybe someone can photochop those wheels on for you??

4WheelParts had 1.5" spacers on the clearance table for $20. I'm going to go in and see if they're still available later today. If not, I'm going to have to order the BLEM ones from teraflex for $11/piece.

I photoshopped the wheels black. If someone can add a small lift and 33's I would be grateful.

that looks pretty good, i would say with some meatier tires and the lift it would look really good.

That's why I was hoping to find someone else with pics! I can't be the only person ever to try to lift their jeep on the cheap.
