Default 32s or 33s??
Should i stay with 32x11.50 or upgrade to 33x12.50. Would the 33s clip my flares when flexing. I have a body lift with 15x8's (3.75 backspacing)

With the rear fully flexed out and no rear sway bar you will probably catch the flares. Mine did, but I also didn't have a body lift on mine. I would also bump up to the 33x12.50's

I would stay with 32's. I had 32's on my 97 with 3" BL. It was perfect.

^^ that wouldn't be the ideal choice for me. I don't like the stuffed (nonlifted) look, I don't wanna re gear from my 4.10s and I wheel my truck a lot. I wouldn't be able to flex for shit

With 33's and a body lift my 03 rubbed when flexed in the rear. Rubbed in the front but that was due to the wheels. Your going to rub in the back. Not horrible but its going to rub. I wore holes in my flares from it
