04 WJ SE 2" spring spacers tire size?

ex TJ 3" lift 33s

just got this 04 WJ few months ago.. wanned to go bit higher.. would love to fit 33s but I know it'll be b#$%^h ..
so if I get these 2" spring spacers how big how wide tires I can fit with stock rims.. and would I have to change shocks control arms.. DS.. ?
and if I choose to go with higher lift could I still add lift to these spacers I have?

(trying to avoid cutting at all costs)

Thanks

I just got some 245/75/16 GY MTR to go with my 2" springs. Not on yet but it's a great combo all around.

245 is the tire width in millimeters, 75 is a aspect ratio for height (i.e. 75%) based of the width, 16 is the rim diameter. biggest u can fit will be a 265/70/16 (minor trimming might still rub at some extremes) or a little smaller like a 245/75/16 (no trimming or rubbing).

edit:

245mm = 9.6 inches

9.6 x .75 x 2 + 16 = 30.4" tires
w x ratio x each side of rim + rim dia = total tire height

I had 265/70/16's when i had my 2" budget boost on. They're about 30.8x10.5
They only rubbed very lightly at full lock.

You can get away with the stock control arms, shocks and definitely driveshafts at 2". I can give you a 9 month used set of Rustys hydraulic shocks for use with a 2" lift for free, just pay to ship them.
