33/12.5/17

I am about ready to get new tires. I want to get 33/12.5/17's. I don't do any towing and I don't do any offroading. Basically I am looking for a tire that will last a long time. I would also prefer a tire that has an aggressive looking tread becasue I like the looks. If anybody has any suggestions please let me know.

Thanks a lot

I assume this is for a 2wd?

If so a 33" tire will fit no problem, Might need a leveling kit, might not. But it will fit.

I don't think a 305/70/17 will fit without a front end lift.

I do know that the 285/75/17 will fit.

Do you have any pictures of your tires? I have heard good things about them.
