No, and that's a size they don't stock. There aren't enough tire carcasses for them to produce 33x12.5 at a profit.

However, I priced 35s before, and it was cheaper to buy five 35" metric tires from then AND a set of five 16" wheels than it was to buy a name brand set of 35x12.5x15 tires.

What do you guys think of General Grabber AT2 tires, thinking about getting them in 235/75r15. Also I just checked Crager's website and they do not make the D Window wheels with a 3.75" BS. What other wheel companies will make these wheels for around the same price?

The only wheels I am finding with a 3.75" BS are 8" wide, is that going to cause a problem with 235/75r15 tires or do I need to adjust tire size?

we mount 235's on 8" wheels all the time. It's a little more of a stretch than 7's but I mean it's just an inch. Your tire size is more of a personal choice on that one

don't quote me but when durangos had 15's I think they were 8's or might've even been 10's and they ran 235's stock

Like I said we've done em before it's just kind of an opinion on that. It can be done and it's not gonna cause any issues. Just depends on whether you like the balloon look or mind the sidewall being relatively vertical to the tread.
