Default Question on lift

Im gonna order a 3.5 Rubicon lift and was wanting to run a set of 32x11.50x15 tires on it I have a set of 15x8 wheels with 4 bs. I know I'm gonna have to do trimming but how much? I mainly drive on the road but when I go off road it's just in fields

Do a cut and fold in the rear, and the front is just trial and error.

Matching my front 3" springs to my re 3.5 rear springs required 1.5 spacers. The rear gave one billionth of an inch under 5 inches.

that being said 265 70 17s (31.63 OD but thinner) fit with no trimming. Haven't undone the sway discos yet though.
