Default 33x12.50R15'S!

So I work at a tire shop, got myself a wicked deal on a lift and level and some mud tires, I went ahead and ordered them but I'm just curious if anyone has had 33x12.50's on a blazer and how much lift and or trimming was needed?

Tires - Nitto Trail Grapper ( almost bought the Mud Grappler)

Lift - Truxxx lift and level

Mind you in total the tires and lift were about 2200. I got them both under 700$

i had a 85 s10 i fit 33 12.50s on with no lift, just had no fenders left. my current 93 has about 9-10 inches of lift and its about perfect, the fronts have touched the fender a few times while under heavy flex situations

Assuming you have an S-series, you're going to need to do a LOT of trimming to make them fit. Even with a 2" BL there will still be a LOT of trimming required.

The truxxx brand is now Traxda, and looking at their site, it's just a pair of torsion keys for the front, it doesn't look like there is anything included to lift the rear from what I can see.

These two threads are about the same Blazer, there might be more information in one than the other. But it's for 10.5 wide tires, 12.5 wide would be even more work.
