Oh yeah, those 33s are very tight with no lift! Once you get that 3" lift on there it will be perfect though.

Looks like there's a nice Porsche next to your TJ too!

might wanna think about flat fender flares...I put a 4 1/4 lift with 33's and it's really close to rubbing if you hit a nasty hole
 
I like my ko2 33” tires a lot . Looks like a solid Jeep too.

If I can make one recommendation? If that is a Smitty Built bumper which it looks like one, do not use the hardware supplied, upgrade to grade 8 bolts and nuts. Mine broke the first day. Nice looking build!

Looking good so far. I see you have the better earlier model OME shocks. The later model Nitrocharger Sports are too stiff in my opinion.

Thanks for info. Bumper is rough country but looks the same.
I will check bolt kit for grade 8

Did you get your bump stops set correctly?. Flat flares won’t change your clearance, only a fender change or bumpstop can correct that. Nice work! Zone is a solid lift
