How will my K5/truck look with xx" tires on xx" of lift?

'84 M1009 CUCV Blazer - stock height, 31 X 10.50's

I want to go with some old school looking 33 X 12.50's. I wish they still made Gumbos!:(

Why? theres so many good reasonably priced tires nowadays theres no reason to run a tire that was outdated when Reagan was still president.
 
Oh man they may be "out-dated" but they work great IMHO and they wear like Iron I had some 44" hawgs with over 40,000 miles on them there a little thin in the middle but still good enough that my cousin runs them on his truck up near duluth
 
4" suspension, 2" body. 33" Yokohamas

If those were 15x10 you would see alot more depth to them. I think he was told what they were and didn't check or guessed, either way I'd bet one whole dollar those are 15x8.
 
They look like 8's to me too. I don't know how many times I've seen people with 8's that honestly think they have 10's. Trucks or cars, it happens with both.

That's because they measure them in the wrong place. I made the same mistake on my first truck about 15 years ago. If you measure the entire width of the wheel, it probably will be close to 10" on most wheels. If you measure from the inside of where the tire actually mounts (the bead), it will be 8" though.
 
I really like your truck, I have a '91 and I really love the stance of your truck! What brand, and size are your wheels?

Looks like MT Classic II's. They would be a 15 x 10 according to his specs.
