Would 33 x 10.50's fit with a 3" lift and my fenders are cut out with flat flares?

Should depending on how much you cut, but you will probably want to flatten the pinch seam in the front wheel wells. Mine rubbed a little before I did this on tight turns, my tires are 12.50's though. I've ran them up dock ramps to check how they were stuffed and its cleared so far with the sway bar disconnected.

Alright thanks and ya I already bent back the seam and trimmed my splash guard and reinstalled it. My 31's have alot of space so I figured they should work. How big of bumpstops would you recommend?

I did 3" lift, 16 x 8 (4" BS) wheels, 285/75/16 (33.25 x 11.25 x 16 measured on the wheel) and some fender cutting
this is what I ended up with
this is where I got the idea
State failed us for no flares. So.... - Jeep Cherokee Forum

they fit with the stock flares if you trim them up some. thats 3" and 285/75R16
here they are with 5" in the front and still 3" in the rear. they fit alot better after.

My rims have good backspacing (3.75) so I dont think they'd rub on the control arms Here's a pic
