I know yours is a 2wd but i fit 35x12.50x15 on 10" wide wheels on my K5 before lifting it. really didnt have enough room but made it work for a few weeks till i could get the lift put on. not extremely helpful either, but my buddy has a stock 97 1500 dodge ram with 33x12.50x15 on 10" wheels and he clears em.

all over as its a wide / fat tire in a 2wd suspension and also stuffed in a fender hole to small for that setup.
you can test fit 1 and turn the wheel to see were for your best option .

agreed. The back corners of the fenders especially, are gonna become real good friends with the tires in your setup.
better mount just 1 for test fitting so you dont waste lots of cash unless your doing your self.

I had one tire mounted on a rim, Put it on the Driverside front, Let it down, I have clearance. No rubbing at all on fenders!.
But, I wonder how that will be, with the inner fenders with flex.
also.
still looking for one more 33. and then they will be in the front !

it seemed like I had about ~4 inches or so before the inner fender
I don't know what size wheels you have but I had my 33x12.5x15 on 8" wide wheels and they clear fine.
With the 10" wide wheels they rubbed on bumps when the wheel is turned.
That was on a 2wd truck.
I had a '79 2wd with 32's and there was plenty of clearance at all times. I can see how a 33" would fit fine.
Remember, the 2wd's have a narrower track width than a 4x4, so there is more room for turning.

Isn't the backspacing of the rim, the most important part?
Yes and the narrower the rim, the closer the tire is to the middle which makes it clear the fenders.
