Got a call from Algamenian Freightways who said my 33's are here. They were going to deliver them Tuesday, but I'm going to pick them up tonight and should have them on by dark (I hope).
Not sure if I'll be able to get good pics and get them up tonight, but I'll do my best.
Cross your fingers and pray that they'll fit.
I will post pics in this thread.

I accidently posted them in another thread and it wouldn't let me delete it, so... please see the thread "Pics" for some of the pictures I took. I'll try and get some shots in the daytime, but I didn't get through 'til after dark.

Man, they look great.
and they do say 33x12.5 on the sidewall. do you recall what the back spacing was on the stock rims?
Your new sidewinders look cool and must have more room behind them cause I was looking at my truck and if I added 2.5" wider tires I think it would rub on the upper control arm.
Gotta love the look.

ELO,
I believe the stock wheel backspacing was 5.5" and my sidewinders are 4.5" backspacing.
I do have a lot more room, probably 1.5 to 2" between the tire and arm now, but it's been a while since I looked, that's just what I'm remembering, but it was a lot more than stock nevertheless which I thought was cool in case I wanted to go wider or somethin' later.
I finally put my centercaps on... had to get 5/16" x 2" (or 2.5" can't remember) hex bolts to put in them. The ones that came with the caps were too long. They make the truck look even better, so I'll have to get pics up for ya.

Man your truck looks good! You got a lift kit on it? I think the 33's were a good choice too.

Thanks CrossEyed... I don't really have a lift kit or anything, but I did crank the torsion bars to give me about 1.5" of lift in the front, and a stiffer, yet more controlling ride.
