Default TJ or YJ fender flares?????

YJ owner at work was recalling an article he read in a Jeeper mag...about using Wrangler fender flares on an XJ....and it would allow some trimming to open the wheel wells out a little....while still keeping the basic stock look...
I'm trying to fit 32x11.5's on 3.5" of Rubicon express....
Has anybody tryed this??? If so...how'd it go?

its not too bad, you can deff fit 32's with your set-up. Ive got a 4" lift and im planning on 33's. Some pics are in my album. oh and use the TJ flares, they just look alot better.

You need two sets of REAR tj flares. Please don't use front flares on the front of the xj. It just doesn't look right.
