I have to say that 33" tires rubbed too much with a mildly cranked t bar and rear springs. It was definitely necessary to trim the rear of the front fenders and the front of the rear fenders along with a trimmed front rocker panel/pounded seam and 1" body lift and 1" rear bump stop extension. This was necessary for 33"/12.5 Goodyear mtr's on 8" rockcrawler rims with 3.75 backspacing. A narrower tire or closer to stock backspacing might tuck in better and require less trimming but might also interfere with the idler arm brace (which if you are running this size tire with ifs in the rocks you need the brace).
