I call the 94 the "Stabbin Wagon" since I built the hydraulic hay bale spear for it.

Bogger 33x12.50-16.5's on 9.75" wheels on the front and SSR 33x14.50-16.5's on 12" wheels on the rear. I wish they made wider, since I cant go taller on account of the bale spear height, but they seam to helped alot over the 265/75-16's. Just wish it would quit raining here, we've had 90" this year. Maybe I wont get stuck as much now.

Looks good!

Interco does make a hair wider tire, a 33x15.50-16.5LT. I run the 35x15.5-16.5s on a 12" wide rim on my '83 K20, and it makes for a nice wide footprint.

Are they in a 10ply, I didn't see any wider in the 33"? Old girls kinda heavy, probably 6k over factory weight loaded.
 
how does that size tire clear on the front? I wouldnt mind putting them on my suburban (33x12.5's)

I cant say for sure, I run alot of weight, the 265/75-16's rubbed sometimes before I replaced the body mounts(wore slap out) and lifted the cab 3".

33x12.50-16.5 on 16.5x9.75 with 4.75" backspacing. I trimmed the lower rear corner of the fender about 1" back and 4" up or so. I trimmed the lower bumper corner 3/4"x3" or so. Plus the 3" body(cab) lift to make it clear.

With a 16" wheel you may have a better wheel selection with more backspacing or run a narrower wheel than I did. With the perfect wheel(narrower/deeper backspacing) combination you might could get by with cranking the T-bars a little. Ideally I think you would need a 3" body lift, (on a 16x8 with 5" backspacing, guessing), you wouldn't need to trim the fenders.

HTH,

They better, thats a fresh one, its less than three months old. Couldn't get it and over 100 more off some of the meadows, on account of all the rain, like I said we've had 90 inches this year.
 
The Boggers are BAD ASS!!! If they were a radial I'd definatly run them on my SloBurban. I want some 35 or 36" X 12.5 Swamper radials instead. :)

That's a darn nice feed setup. What does the spear rig look like? Just tip and go?

Here's a couple pics. A few more in my photo album. You all will get a kick out of my 4" exhaust pipe oil reservoir.
