ok so i got this set of american racing wheels and 33" bfg muds and they fit but sharp turns make contact with my fender flares and my end caps. i have no problem cutting my end caps a bit but idk if i wanna lose my flares. i like em and i think they are sexy. im thinkin about adding a 1-1.5" spacer up front to compensate for the tires. heres some pics of how it looks.

I have been there done that. The spacers will more than likely make them rub more. You are better off just trimming the back of the flare. But if you really wheel your jeep the tires are going to hit the fenders and rip the flares off anyway. I have 33"s on my jeep with a 4.5 lift an my centers are cut about 5-6 inches and I barely miss rubbing when fully flexed out. Hope this helps

yea that helps. thanks man. ill prolly end up cutting and making some flat flares.

You can always notch the flares up an inch or two by drilling in new holes to the fender. It won't be as flush down on the bottom of the door but will work

i have the same wheels in a 15x10 3.74bs flava.

The good news is, if you like the flares, there is no reason to remove them.

I have 33s too, however my wheels have 3.75inch backspacing.

Here's what I did to eliminate ALL rubbing:
