Default 33" actually 32.1" will it fit?

Ok i ordered my 4.5 RC kit and it says fits 32s, but needs minor trimming for 33s. I found these tires that are classified as 33 inch tires but the actual diameter is only 32.1". Will these fit with no trimming??

Probably not. They are .1" taller.

it also depends on how wide the tire is and the back spacing on the rim. you wont know until you mount them up after the lift.i would say find a tire that is a true 33" and do a little trimming =)
