Personaly, as long as you make the car look better than normal, or more like you im okay with that, from donk to a sick xj I'm okay with it. But if its a cookie cutter... I wouldn't pull out in front of me

Hey man, can you put up a pic of your rims? I've been trying to picture what they are from how you describe them, but all I keep thinking of is the gold w/ chrome rim oldschool mags - and I'm sure that's not what you have.

You're going to have to do a stupid amount of trimming to fit 33s on a 3" lift, and add a ton of bumpstop. Why not just wait until you get your bigger lift and then only trim what you need to instead of destroying your fenders?

I wouldn't say a stupid amount of trimming. I just did basic trimming to fit 35's on 4.5".

Now if you were to put 33's on stock ride height, then you'll prolly have a "stupid" amount to trim lol
