Lift kit list
There is a list of lift kits, and what tires will fit with them.

33's will fit with a lot of trimming. as long as your truck is a road warrior and not a wheeler you shouldn't have problems

Well you can only do so much trimming before you start trimming and cutting into supports for your blazer, which is not a good idea. I wouldn't go any bigger than a 32 imo. Bigger tires means you have to regear. Also, bigger tires are hard on our trucks. Minus the zr2 with its beefier axles, the regular blazer axle will only handle so much. Just be careful.

good idea, you would have to trim way to much with a 33. you still will have to trim with a 32 but not much
