Default 33s on my cherokee suspension question

I have a 3 inch Rough Country lift on my 01 Cherokee sport. Add a leef and shox on rear with new leef springs also. Front is coils and shox. Also has transfer case drop. I have a guy wanting to sell me some 33s on 15x10s. If I add a 2inch spacer and 2inch lift shackles would that me enough to make them fit?

PLEASE... post your opinion, long or short answers. If you don't like th e other guys opinion, I don't want all your arguments. Thankyou

Here's a good how to video on cutting and folding your fenders.

You did not mention tire make, model, width.
Makes a big difference.
I have folded, cut hack fenders with 6+ lift. Tires still hit things.
In off camber with a lot of weight on for example front right, they still hit my fenders, On flat ground, they hit lower control arm.
