If you cut past the pinchseam you will separate the body. So if you do that it will enlarge the wheel well but will require you to weld the gap back together. You will still rub with those 33s anyways unless bumpstopped properly. You should get/make correct bumpstops.

this is what it will look like. So I guess yes, You could cut it until its even with the inside fender and then weld the two back together. And obviously cant go very far because of where the door starts, but should give you about an inch I'd say.
