A 305/65-17 is roughly a 33x12.5 as well iirc. But any 33x12.5 tire should fit on those wheels fine. I've seen guys running 33x12.5 and 35x12.5 tires on those wheels.
As far as trimming, it really depends on how much you bumpstop it. I'm running a narrow 33 on mine with just a little cut and fold on the fenders on only 1.5" lift and don't have any rubbing.
