Default spacer lift W/ 3" suspension lift

looking at getting a 3" SJ lift kit, which should fit 32"s. would it be better to trim or spacer lift to fit 33"s with some room for flex?

also i cant decide between 33"s or 35"s, can anyone post some of their rigs with 33"s or 35"s ?

thanks

Im running a 3" RC and a 2" BB on top with 33's I like it but I had to trim A lot and I still rub. Im gonna have to bumpstop but I say go for it. If you dont go big enough you will just want to go bigger eventually.

take a look at my build thread in the sig. I am currently running 35's with 3" lift in front and about 4.5" in the rear. I am running 15" rims with 4.0" backspacing. I have only had it out once, but there was no rubing besides me flexing the suspension out to much without bumpstop.
