I have Bushwacker cut-outs with a 3" lift and I'm running 33x12.50's and they rub in full lock when flexed, I ran 32x11.50's without the BW's. So you should have no problem. As for the wheels, what size are they?

If they're 15x7, i wouldn't recommend it. If they're 15x8, yes. You need to figure out your wheel size.

Most any wheels on a Jeep can handle 32x11.50 tires with no problem. The wheel in the picture is probably a 15x8, which is arguably the most popular size ever...for older Jeeps. People put 37X12.50's and bigger on that kind of rim. By the looks of how the tire that is on there is mounted, there should be no problem with the bigger tire.

Bushwackers will open up the wheel well more than stock, although with 32x11.50's you could easily go without them.
