Will 33 KO2s fit on the BD steelies?

I hate the smaller tires on the BD. Will 33 KO2s or similar fit on the steelies?

In short: Yes!

Long answer: They are a 7.5" wide rim, so that may or may not fall into the tire manufacturer's recommended width, but a decent tire shop will still mount them and they should work fine.

Yep, 285/70/17C will fit on a 7.5" wheel just fine.

One thing to remember though, anarchy is a valid political philosophy and ideology.

My post from another thread, Yes, 285's will fit on 7.5" wheels but:

Most folks who are switching to 33's tend to think of the BL 33's 285/70 x 17. While this may be ideal for some they may cause clearance issues on trims without upgraded suspension and wheels due to width induced issues. I'm looking at 255/80 x 17, which will fit 7.5" wheels nicely and have fewer clearance issues. They are actually a little taller than the 285's (33.06 vs 32.71) and are available from Falken, Cooper and others.

I just put falken at3 wildpeaks on my F150, what a great tire. Quiet, beefy looking, nice ride.

What size?

A better question is: what and where will the tire rub under articulation and turns on both directions? You could theoretically mount it, but will it tear up the truck?

My tennis partner just put those on her JL today. They look massive and great on her stock JL. I was just texting her that they will kind of dwarf my BD tires.

They a damn fine looking tire.

Saw Falken 33's today. Wow. Huge. Between ko's, Falken, and general grabbers... Who's best?
