33"s & 2" VS 33's & 4" lift

Okay guys. I'm looking at getting me a set of 33's or metric equivalent. What I need are some pics with this size tire on either 17 or 18 inch wheels with either a 4" lift or a 2" lever.

I would really like 35's but with the cost of fuel these days I just dont know.

They will be going on this.

I also have 35's with a 2" leveling kit. If you go with 33's, don't do anything to the suspension. They'll look to small. If anything, just a 2"leveling kit will be more than enough.

snowmobile, whats the backspacing on your rims? Do you rub with the 35's?

I was thinking of doing the 33 on stock wheel idea even with my leveling kit because of cost and fuel mileage but I really like the idea of 35's as well.

Volcom, very sweet setup. Do you have any rubbing issues as well?

I ask cause I also like to go down some dirt roads sometimes whether hunting season or just to go out to the lake and the last thing I want is my tires and wheels eating my fenders.

Sorry to hijack the thread...This is a good topic though, I like seeing these simplistic setups as much as the sky high ones.

If you want 33s dont level it, If you level it I would go with 35s for sure. Heres a few of my truck leveled with 35s

Heres leveled with the 33s.
