33" on Big Bend

[Deleted member 16780]

Many of the after-market tire resellers have updated their sites. So have manufacturers. Not one of them, that I have checked, have 33" AT tires for 17" Big Bend trim after you plug in the model and trim. I want to ditch the 32" weak tires on the BB and replace them with something like the Toyo ATIII w/0 having to alter the vehicle. The dealer said I should be able, but I am unable to find anything beyond the BFG's.

I think Toyo Open Country AT3 comes in a 255/80/17 that should work on a BB.

Those tire search tools are only going to show you available factory sizes. You are going to have to use a combination of tiresize.com to get the metric size numbers and then use those numbers to see if any tires actually exist (at tirerack.com or elsewhere).

Yep, the tire configurators on those websites are usually only going to show you factory sizes. Tire rack will sometimes show you non factory sizes. I’m too lazy but there are online tire guides that will show you comparable sizes and will even show you how far your speedometer will be off with different sizes.

My challenger came with 245’s and it now has 305’s. Tire rack says those don’t work lol and won’t even show them.

Falken A/T 3 LT255/80R17 is 33" and priced a little lower that the KO's.

Tire rack and other retailers won’t say something works unless they performed their own fitment tests. They usually go with oem sizes to cya. I’m sure 33” tires will be fine with/without a spacer or different offset wheel. 1/2” on either side shouldn’t affect anything but full lock.

This is a good website to use.

Thinking those will work on the stock BB wheels without modifications?
