Xenon Flares with NO lift

Anyone have any photos of 32" or 33" tires on a wrangler with Xenon Flat Flares but NO LIFT?

Hate to tell you this, but I just put on new 33" MTZ's yesterday to see what they would look like with just a 1.25" BL and factory flares, even if I had flat flares I don't see any way how 33's would work. Now that I know for sure how much room I have to play with before I hit the top of the garage door, lift will be coming REAL soon. I'll try to take some pics tomorrow...

I know that this is not quite what you asked for, but this will hopefully give you an idea of how it would look. 33x12.50x15 tires, on stock suspension with 1.25" body lift. Tad under 3" of room in the front, a little under 4 1/2" in the back. Xenon's might gain you 1.5"-2" on top of that maybe?

If you added a 1" coil spacer in the front, to level the jeep, with a 1.25" BL, and flat flares I thing you would be okay, I will probably find out this week because this is my plan. We will see if it works. But guys can run 35s with 2.5" of suspension lift, and 1.25" BL and flat flares, so why can I do the same without the 2.5" lift? I would just make sure and a just the bump stops so you don't rub. Thanks for the pics if gives me some insight.

Thanks! It's a Bestop Highrock bumper, got a good deal on it a couple of years ago and have been pretty happy with it.
