Default tire and rim size questions

I just put a 6.5. Rc long arm kit in, I want to run 33x12.5, I don't want to trim anything its a very clean jeep, how much off set would I need and do I need a 8 or 10 wide rim? Do I need to stay with narrow tire? It just don't look like there is a lot of room, I have 31x10.5x15 on 8 wide now. please any help would be great, just don't want to buy something and have it not fit thanks

I have the same kit with 8" wide wheels and 33x12.50's, I only had to trim the front bumper caps a little but looks real clean in my opinion.

Yea do that, with 3.5 BS. If you go with a ten inch rim it will be easier to blow a bead on the trail.
