33x13.5? I think the real question should be why would you want to.

they should fit, laying down on their sides....

Just slide them under. Strap them to the underbody.
You'll float across the river....

Thats an odd size and wide tyre for a jimny.

Not a chance in a full body rig
Go to a 255/85/16 or 33x10.5r15 .
They would still need massive work to fit.
Wt gear case.
Full floater
Cromo cv
Maybe custom front diff if it doesn't hold together
If u r diving stuff hard enough to need 33 ur not going to have straight guards anyway so lots of cutting is fine

31s are a struggle under a jimny.

33x10.5 can and has been done but its a lot of mods.

13 wide is just a shit tyre width for a small car

255 85 16 maxxis creepy crawler or 33 10.5 BFG KM2 or 255 85 16 BFG KM2 if you're looking for a 1/2 sensible 33" tyre on a jimny, but be prepared to replace the whole driveline and do a lot of cutting.

Ah bugger nice looking tyre

Not many hard core tyres in 28" 0r 29" that I can find...

Don't mind spending a few hundred more on tyres.

Any suggestions or are BFG M/T's the best soliton?

Cheers

13.5" is just stupidly wide for a tyre that is 33" tall. I honestly can't think of a single car I'd want them on.

If I was going a 33 in a 15" rim I'd go with what steve and tanshi suggested: 33x10.5.

Where are you doing most of your off road driving now to warrant 'hard core' or oversized tires?

KM2s will get you more places then you'd want to drive in your brand new Jimny.

Having seen the places those tyres take heavily modified Sierras, I'd be surprised if you found their limits.

I found my 215 sized KL71s a good all-round tyre that performed very well on my Jimny, albeit noisy on the highway.
