Default Tire question

Yes i was wondering if my 1989 s10 blazer 4x4 2.8L can rotate tires this big 33x12.50R15/C. Because my friend has a 1984 Bronco II with a 2.9L and it has a 9inch lift 3 inch body and 6 inch suspension andthey have 31inch tires i was wondering if mine would be able to turn the 33's with a 3 inch body and a 4inch suspension

You can fit 33" tires with a 3" bodt lift and liberal amounts of fender trimming.

You could turn them fine but it would accelerate and brake slower/longer than right now and would probably put some strain on the transmission and rear/front differentials. Definately would have to lift it and do some triming to fit them.

lenny is exactly right and i would think it would really slow it down on acceleration and i know it will be hard on the brakes to stop the 33's
