Will 33x12.5's fit on a stock 17x7 rim?

mshamel · Mar 14, 2023

I've got a 21 Warlock on stock 17x7 rims and 265-70-17s.
I found a great deal on a set 33x12.5 tires. Will the 33's fit on that narrow of a rim without popping a bead?

The truck is lifted 2.5" in the front and 1" in the back so clearance shouldn't be an issue with the + 25.4mm offset.

It depends on the specific tire make and model. Look up the spec sheet (or post the tire and we can look it up), it will tell you what the min and max rim width is for that tire.

I’m going to guess the 12.5 tire is too wide. BFG K02 in 33x12.5 for example list a rim width range of 8.5-11”.

I checked it and they're too wide. Thanks for the info.

They won’t pop a bead or anything like that. It does cause a tendency to wear tread more in the center.

I have run 35’s on skinny wheels a time or two. Mainly on work trucks where I needed the flotation and didn’t care about appearance.

Are you sure you dont have 17x8 inch wheels? Look in the ram app and check what yours came with. I also have a 21 warlock and it has 17x8. It will at least help with your selection. When my tires wear im looking into 285x70x17.
