If I put a Rough Country 2.5 in leveling kit on front of my 2020 Ranger will 33 inch tires fit without modifying crash bars?

Not really wanting to cut them or change them at this time. Only 2500 miles haha. Guess I'll just run 32 s for now and reevaluate it next set of tires haha. Did get my rough country shackle front conversion installed today. Will post pics in morning.

They keep the tire from crashing into cab to protect leg and feet in case of a collision

Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
I went with 32s after my 2.5 level and I feel like there's definitely room for a 33" tire... as long as you don't get wild with width. If you can find a 33 you like in a 255 or 265 im sure it would be golden.
