I just pulled all the stock flare mounting hardware off of my Jeep cause I ripped one of the flares off with 32s and a 4.5" lift. Youll still rub with that setup (assuming you dont get BFG's which are smaller than advertised)

Really still rubbing? Wow I plan on getting a set of Dunlop Mud Rovers and if I do end up getting a lift and what not I may invest in a set of bushwackers

At full flex it hit the flares. Turning it would rub a lot on the bumper caps. Those are gone now too haha.

Im running 32x11.50x15 Hankook MT's

That's the same measurements for the mud rovers, I don't flex so I can't see that being an issue but as for turning full turn at times I can see that being annoying, and bumper caps? aren't those the black blocks on the bumpers how do they rub on them?
