Default 33's with 3"+ lifts?

Hey guys,
I have a 2" bb and wanna scrap it for a bigger/better lift. I am looking at the rock krawler mid arm flex right now.... (any feedback on the lift would be great) but i was wanting to try and c some bigger lifts with 33's? are there any out there?? I searched here https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...t=9979&page=62 but has a hard time finding bigger lifts? these lifts with body lifts would be cool to see as well

i have the 3" teraflex coil kit with 33's. i got around 4-4.25' out of it, i like the way it looks on 33's.
i had a 1" body lift to, but i pulled it as i didnt need it, i want to stay just low enough to get full flex out of my suspension without rubbing, and right now i have just that, it's twist up but doesnt rub anywhere.




<---MORE PICS THERE.

I have a 3 inch BDS lift with 1.5 inch spacers, I was running 33's however I have recently stepped up to 35's, Here are some photos with the 33's

Were the spacers necessary? Could the problem have been solved with a different wheel offset? Looks real nice.

I like your ride height. My Rubi will be my daily driver so I don’t want something I need a ladder to crawl into. Also, living on long island there is a very rare chance I would ever really need a lift. Honestly I’m doing it more for look. There I said it. LOL
