Hey Guys new to the forum...'

I just did a level kit from ready lift (2" 1/4) and went to a shop near me and they told me i can't put 33" on my truck.
I have a 2016 silverado 1500 LT and i figured i could at least put 33 on them ....Shop is saying 275 is the best they can do?

Anyone here on the forum have been able to put 33's on their silverado without modifying the body/back panel?
if so? What size is everyone running? i was looking as far as width to be able to get the tire to come out of the fender by 1 inch,,, Possibly 12.50...

any info and pics of trucks welcomed so i can get an idea also on tires and rims.

275 tells us nothing unless you give the aspect ratio and wheel size

On stock wheels, 33x12.50 would fit without rubbing the fender...but it would rub the sway bar at full lock. 285 is about as wide as you can go on stock wheels to avoid rubbing the sway bar.

So with a 20" wheel you would be able to fit a 285/60R20 (33.4"), and a 275/65R20 (34.07").

18" wheel you'd fit a 285/65R18 (32.6") with absolutely no issues. Might be able to squeeze a 285/70R18 (33.7")

17" wheel you'll easily fit a 285/70R17, might be able to squeeze a 285/75R17 in there, but no guarantees.
