Lift/Tire question
Alrighty, I know this question was probably posted over and over again and for this folks I'm really sorry. I just haven't found any specific answeres out there for what I am looking to do.
I have a 2001 XJ Limited and am looking to put a Rough Country 4.5 lift with replacement leafs. I also found that tirerack.com has the tires I want and off the top of my head they are 33x16(or 15)x12.5
I have asked alot of people this question and have gotten many CONFLICTING answers. What do I have to do to make them work? Cutting the fenderes? Flares? Hub spaceres? Who has done this lift config?? And fyi, the tires are Goodyear MTR w/ Kevlar. Someone help! lol

33's on a 4.5 kit you are going to have to trim the fenders or it will rub. Are you putting the tires on stock wheels or aftermarket? if so what is the offset?

I plan on putting the tires on aftermarket rims. Something like a modest black look is what I'm after. What would you reccomend for rim offset??
