Default 33X12.5X17 on stock Moab rims
Will 33 X 12.5 X 17 tires fit on the stock Moab wheels? I'm thinking they are to wide but would like some feedback.

Thanks

Yup - just installed some with 1-1/2" spacers even though the tire specs say 8-1/2" rim minimum.

I am running the 33 as well, but I did have to install spacers due to sharp turns rubbing.

I do have the 1.5" Sidertrax spacers on already, so I should be good to go there.

Thanks folks
