Great photos. Provided exactly the info needed. From what I'm seeing our QF Flares will work fine for you. They also provide more opening width. Remember to let us know this is for an 84-96 XJ. The door piece is a different cut.
Thanks, Doug
35s on 4 1/2 " lift? Can I do 33s on 3 1/2" lift on a 97 with flat flares???
Seems like just about anything is possible with enough effort.
But in my opinion, 33s on 3.5" of lift will be close, especially if you off road. You'll probably need to install extended bumpstops to keep the tires from constantly hitting the flares if you off road. You'll also need to watch how much contact there is between the tires and the Jeep. May need different wheels with less backspacing or spacers on your existing wheels.
Hope this helps,
Doug
Thanks for the question but no, we don't have plans for flat flares on the Comanche. The front flares will work, but the rear flare is a totally different design than the 2 Door XJ.

Sure you can order just the front flares. That's one of the things we do, is sell "individual" flares. Go to the Front Flares under Individual Flares tab then select the options you want. You'll need to order both the driver's side & passenger's side plus you'll probably want hardware and edge trim but those are options.

Let me know if there's anything else.
Thanks, Doug
Got my flares installed. For reference, those are new BFG km2's 33 x 12.50 15 on 15 x 8 with 3.75 BS. My lift, measured from axle to frame, is 2.25 in. in the front and 3 in. in the rear. FYI my XJ is a 96 and I understand they can have some parts from the 97 + models and I think mine has the smaller rear fender opening. I'd already done a decent cut and fold when I trimmed the stock flares and fenders for the 31's but had to really beat the crud out of the rears to get the clearance needed for the new 96 and down flares to fit properly, I actually ended up getting them up a bit higher than intended for the most clearance. Lots of room back there now compared to before so I'm thrilled. Also, I cheated the fronts up 1/2 inch or so for as much clearance as possible so they ended up about even with the second crease in the body line. Got the hood vents too but haven't installed them yet.
Before, same lift and tires and trimmed stock flares and fenders:
