well its finally coming I am going to get my 33 inch tires. But i have decided not to get more lift and that 3 inch was enough. but ive heard alot of stuff from other people. I have even heard that i don't have to trim at all to fit 33 inch tires. so plz help on what i should do put up pictures of jeeps with 3 inch of lift and no 33 inch tires plz i would really appreciate it. Thanks

With three inches of lift and 33" tires your probably gonna have to trim the fenders. The problem will be when flexing the suspension and hiting a bump when turning the wheels. Trimming the fenders can be done a few different ways and still look clean. Personally I like the Bushwacker Flat Syle fender flares. I'm running 31x10.50 with 3.75" backspacing and only have two inches of lift (using the above mentioned fender flares). I could easily fit 33's with added bump stops.









The fender flares are a bit pricey but they serve their prupose well and look good (IMO).

You will deffently have to trim. Espically at the back of the fender. But it can be done. Thats what im running right now.

My old Cherokee had 33's on a 4 to 4.5 inch Fabtech lift, and I had to trim them a bit. It was probably ok for cruising around on the road, but I cutting up the treads whenever they would stuff.

Totally agree with PWN. I have4.5 and 33s did some minor trimming and still rubbed a little when turning. Cut on tire bad when flexed. Depends what your going to do with it. Only a street rig you'll probably be fine. Crawler I'd think twice or big bump stops.

My new 31s had to trim front end cap and under flex touch fender.

Your going to go about it a few ways....

Throw the tires on, cut until they fit (most likely no flares)

Buy BW flares, cut out as much as you can when installing them, and bump stop before you rub.

Or bump stop a ton and trim a little.

In UT we have to have tires completely covered. So option #2 is best fitted for street and offroad... But depending on your local laws you could get away with any....

I like my BW flares (pocket style) allowed me to cut out the fenders and keep it clean looking while covering the tires (for my laws) when I was at 4.5" and 33's I had to trim a bit... but back spacing and control arm length can change how much needs to be cut.
