If you don't want to do all of that your better off just going with 32s
    you sure all thats necessary on a WK? i figured front and rear pinch weld work would be suffice and maybe rear bumpstops?

    I didn't realize that you have a WK. If done properly you can run 33s. The biggest thing is having a tire/wheel combo with the proper offset/back spacing. My buddy has 33x12.5s on his 4 inch BDS lifted WK and had to completely cut the entire pinch weld area out because his tires stick out really far from the frnder. Nothing is impossible on our jeeps. Hell I'm running 33s on a two inch lift with no rubbing and I know guys with 4 inch lifted XKs and 33's that have rubbing. Its all about the setup your running.
