Your going to rub, looks like you come close already. You'll be fine in a straight line, but turning or flexing your gotta eat up something. I said FTW cut off a lot of metal and put 35s on my 3.5"... still rubs my LCA's
3.5". 33x10.50.
trimmed and new high clearance fenders
new wheels with 4" bs (i think)
no rubs anywhere.
works really well. i wouldn't want to do much more tire than this on these axles anyways.
i wouldn't want any higher lift. it would be unstable.

No it only rubbed on the plastic trim of stock bumper it don't rub anywhere else I've completely flexed it out where I was only on a front and back tire and it still never rubbed even when turning at full flex I need longer lower control arms because the stock ones bring the axle back but I have no issues rubbing I believe the wheels are 3.75 back spacing
Care to share info on your "high clearance fenders".
They look great and functional.

My daughters first Cherokee was on 33's (285/70R17) with 3.5" lift and just a little trimming and a little of rubbing, it was about 10.50 wide tires - and ran mostly on the street (she now has a dedicated trail rig on 33's with a lot of trimming and less lift)
With the same make and model tire in a 33/12.50/15 the jeep would not even pull out of the driveway. What rim, backspacing, and tire width will make a big difference.
Both below are with Goodyear MTR's
