Man you just do not give up do you? You must not have read not one persons reply to you, where others told you and I quote "READ THE THREAD". All your amateur questions have been covered over and over again.

And why in the world would you even ask if you should go different sizes for front and rear? You apparently have no idea what you are doing, do ya? Best suggestion for you is to sale the truck to someone that does know what they are doing and buy a Honda Civic, seems to be more in line with you.

Do you actually think that you are going to wear us down if you constantly ask us over and over the same questions?

And confedneck is not butt sore by what you said, he is just tired like us of you asking the same dumb questions with total disregard of everyone telling you over and over the same thing.
 
No, all 4 the same size. That way you can rotate the tires during maintenance.

Here's the problem, some people get tired of answering the same ?s over and over. I don't blame them. A little searching goes a long way.

Now, on to the problem at hand. It has been my experience with my K5 when it was stock, when I put 33s on it they rubbed the back of the front fenders while off road. Even more so when I removed the sway bar. On pavement and normal driving it was fine. Not sure how you plan to use yours or if it sits on stock suspension but you may get some tire rub here and there.

Now, help us help you. Get some good pics from the side of the truck. Take a look at the front springs, these can be a dead give away as to the truck being stock or lifted. A stock front spring will be negative arched, think frown face. A lift spring will be flat across or have a positive arch, or smiley face. Heck, take a pic of those too. The more info you can give, the more help you can possibly get.
 
For the trollnewB. I ran 33s with no lift and they never rubbed. Full stuff, full turn, on 15x10s. There, that make life easier, since you are too smart for the search function?
 
Thanks to the people who help again, i know im a newbie by the way, thats why i ask questions that are repeated, if we knew everything, we wouldnt be on a forum . 90-95 percent of all forum messages are repeated so what is the big deal, if that annoys you, thats a you problem. Do you respond when someone asks you how are you doing every day? Or do you answer with a snide remark as well ?

If there was a sticky at the top of my life forum that spelled out in simple easy to find explanations how I felt everyday of the future then yes I would get pissed if people asked me how I was doing everyday.

You're point is invalid. Theres a damn sticky that answers EVERY question that youve asked in here. Dont complain about having to go through a thread and then spend twice the amount of time defending your stupid point in your own repeat thread.

33s are the most common tire size on these trucks. Its not difficult to find that information here.

I was trying to bite my tongue but this holier than thou, deal with my **** attitude while I complain about how I should be able to ask anything I want and not have to even try to search for anything attitude is not welcome here. And we're generally 99.9% of the time a damn nice group of people.
 
Just so you all know your wasting your time. Some people need to be spoonfed. Until he is forced to rely upon himself he will rely upon others to think for him. Its a very common problem nowadays. Some people never learn to rely upon themselves. How the hell do you think Obama got elected :D
 
Go with the 33's, they add 50+hp. Helps if you add running boards and dual steering stabilizer.

QFT. And I say that as someone who is, in general, outside of the brotherhood. I don't post here a lot, I'm not as hardcore as most of the guys, and I really don't do too much to my K5, other than use it as my DD and camping truck. But I find this to be one of the best web forums - lots of laid back folks with tons of information to share.

When I've seen people get pissed off here (and it pretty uncommon), it's usually because someone thinks their own time is more important than somebody else's - as in, they can't be bothered to search and/or do a little research before asking questions. Usually, a prod in the right direction is enough for some people, but for others...well, not so much.

You're not simply a newB, you're an arrogant jerk. and a complete d-bag to those trying to help. THERE IS AN ENTIRE FOCKING THREAD dedicated to the question you asked. Try a little reading comprehension. Works wonders for 3rd graders.
