Default 3.5 RE lift with front Coil spacers ? Fit 33 10.50

Im running a 1998 Cherokee sport 4 door spd. I have a RE 3.5 lift and i want to run 33.10 50 im rolling the front fenders and im cutting the rear due to some rust. I think i will have room for 33's. I plan on buying coil spacers. Thats another question what size spacers do you usually run. i want the jeep to sit level. So the big question is will it clear the tires with out changing much. im gonna be running stock wheel spacing and no wheel spacers. I tried the lift thread and not much luck. thanks.

Thanks jeepseed.

You should be fine on the fenders with some trimming, but stock wheels will KILL your turning! you will either need wheel spacers or new BS'd wheels.

By "kill your turning" he means your tire will hit your lower control arms and you won't be able to turn your wheel to the max. You can get new lower control arms with an offset that are made for guys that want to run stock wheels. I would think a 3/4" to 1" spacer will make your rig sit level, but it depends on whether you have add a leaf in the back or a whole new spring pack. Also, you should clear the tires no problem, but you might need longer bump stops.
