I dont think you can get 33's on there with only 2 inch of lift.
i have a body lift and 5 inch susp lift and still had to trim some

You'll likely have to trim some of the flares away, and sticking with the narrower 10.5 wide tires will help too. For the front of mine i did aftermarket flares, and in the rear I had to trim a bit off the back of the passenger side rear flare. driver side rear flare didn't need any trimming.

no problem any other questions just ask.

what kind of lift? have you bought it already? if you're doing the 2" superlift, and haven't bought it yet, I would suggest looking into the rough country one instead. It'll keep the drive line angles a little better than the superlift.

If it was me, I would go for the rough country. It'll save some wear on the cv's over the superlift.
