they will fit on a 3/4 ton. i believe the biggest tire on a stock c10 would probably be a 31.

Krue has then on his 1/2 2WD GMC short step (4wd ralley wheels though). They work, but I would have power steering for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if it is origninal shocks, let alone the springs. (Sorry Krue had to be silly somehow)

Here is a shot he posted a while back right after he put them on.

These are not 33's but they are mounted on a stock 1/2 ton 2wd.
They were on it when I got it and have since been removed.
No problems with rubbing at all.
These are 31.5 x 10.5 BFG's on 15x8 wheels

31 x 10.50 on 15x8 wheels with stock suspention on mine. this seems to be the most common set.
I know this tire and wheel saved me when i wrecked my 67, the wheel took the impact which tore the lower a-arm off and bent the frame and lower cab. remember concrete dosen't give but this tough old truck allowed my son and i to walk away with only a minor scratch from the mirror bolt. I AM GOING TO REBUILD THIS TRUCK!!!
