Pic request of 33x12.50x15

I looked around but couldn't find any build threads of people using 33x12.50x15 on their 3rd gens, and of course I wasn't able to find any in the hundreds of replies to "What did you do to your 3rd gen today" thread. I was hoping to see what it looked like as I found a pretty good deal on a set of tires/rims near me but I wanted to get an idea of how it would look first.

I like it on the taco, thanks for the fast reply!

I'm trying to figure out if i'd like these on my runner:

15-inch rims won't clear the front calipers on the 4WD 4Runners that's why it would be rare to see them on 3rd gens.

15 inch rims will clear the front calipers on 4wd 4runners. Did you see my picture?

Now some off sets and what not might clear but a wheel spacer might solve that..

yep. I was going to say, that all depends on the backspacing.
 
15" wheels clear fine. Tundra springs/5100s in the front and superflexes/bilsteins in the rear with 1.5" body lift = 33/12.50-15s. This is the day I had the tires and wheels put on, the suspension lift was on but not the body lift. I had the same size on my Taco and for me, it's a great all around size. Sorry the pic is so big, I don't upload very often.

15" rims wont clear the limited models because they had a larger caliper. At least thats what ive experienced with my limited model.
 
They "can" fit your 4runner. Sometimes you have to use a piece of metal that is fabricated to be placed in between your tire and the rotor. They are called spacers and will move your tire further outside of the vehicle to allow the proper clearance for the caliper. Make any sense?
 
Yea, I have the SR5 model that came with 15" wheels, so that is prob why they swapped over with no probs. Plus my wheels have a pretty decent offset.
