33 or 35 inch KM2's for my k10?
i have a stock height(for now) 84 K10 that i need tires badly for before winter, i can't decide on 33 or 35 inch KM2's. has anyone ever put 35's on a stock truck? or are 33 as big as i should go? 3:73 gears, 700r4 with overdrive and a np208. Built 350 400rwhp and 410 torque

it took 6" lift for me to clear 35s, you'll need 33s

you can fit 35" on a stock truck but it will take a lot of trimming with a 3" to 4" lift it will take a little trimming

Don't cut on your fenders to fit the 35's. Just go with the 33's it will look a lot better.

I'm running 35's on 4" suspension lift,no trimming, with zero rubbing. I say throw a 3" body lift and run 33's.

FYI, the 35" KM2's run really small. They are barely 34"

The 84 in my sig has 33s and no lift whatsoever, looks good if that is all you are wanting to go.

I would love to see a 3" suspension like tuff country or something with 33's the 4" looks a bit much for 33's for my taste.

looking more for function than look. but not looking to trim the fenders, id rather buy a lift, so 33's it is i guess.

35x14.50 tires on a stock height k30 so it sits 1-2" higher stock
i had to trim the fenders to be able to turn, wheel width makes a big differance to.
33x12.5 stock height k5 blazer, on the street no trimming needed but flexed out i had to trim about 1" up front
32"s fit at stock height no rubbing both on and offroad with the stock wheels

Yes, 33s would be a good choice. I like the look of 2" and 33s though.
This is my brother's truck with 2" and 33s.

I heard 33s are better with the 3.73s and 35 would be better with 4.10s
