They should fit with no issue. I ran a 35 inch spare on factory mount until switching to 37's

The 33 will definitely fit, I am running 315/70/17 on stck carrier, fits nicely, bumper actually holds the bottom of the tire, no sag or rattles.

Just be sure to get a set of Daystar bumpstops for the tailgate

He's not gonna need them since he's using the OEM wheels. The longer Daystar tailgate bumpstops are for guys like me that are using aftermarket wheels with less backspacing.

Default Caution! Thread Hijacking In Progress!

I am in the same boat. I have a set of 33 12.5 17's coming and I am using my factory 17" Alloys. I already ordered wheel spacers for the axles, but am wondering what to do with my spare. Spacers are sold in packs of 2 and I am just trying to be cheap, will it bolt up to the carrier or am I going to need to come up with a plan B?

He might have to trim/modify the isolators since that tire is wider than the stockers
