I suspect he may have some severe chassis rubbing unless he gets them custom made with a massive offset for major $$$
My 31's when new rub the chassis on full lock with F100 Steelys on my NT

He will need some very wide flares.

Most "standard" 15x10's have around 3 " backspace.

what 33" tyre is he going to run on a 10" rim? I can only think of a 33 x 14.50 bogger and a SX 33 x 15.50

No they are 13.5. I looked into it when i was running 12.5 MTRs. I didn't feel I had the room for the extra width.

Whats he going to drive with it?
