Question about clearance issues
Hey so i recently aquired a 1990 jeep cherokee and am getting a 3 inch lift for 150 bucks from a buddy. Will I be able to clear 33's without cutting fender wells?

Well technically you could get away with a litle bit of trimming. But you'd have to bumpstop the hell out of it. And you'd prolly rub at full turns. But then again, that would defeat the purpose of getting bigger tires.

Well, if your asking my opinion, I would go with the 33's and take my flares off and trim the fenders. There's plenty of write-ups out there so you can do it the correct way and it doesn't look like garbage.

Alright I will prolly do that. Im getting the 33's for super cheap so far i have spent
175 for the jeep
150 for the lift
10 for gas
prolly 200 for the tires. so im looking at 600 total so far
