Enlisted make more than a lot of people in the civilian world. Im a recruiter

But i would go with 35s. Even with a 2.5 inch lift and flat fenders you can fit 37s.

I went 2.5" lift and put 33's on mine and now really wishing I would have gone 3-3 1/2" and 35"s. I will say that I ran several of the more difficult trails in Moab and it did really well. I only bottomed out a few times and made the tires rub a few times, but I went everywhere a friend on 37's and 4" of lift went.

Remember...lift to clear bigger tires...put on bigger tires clear more obstacles...

If you want 33's...why lift at all? Put on 35's and keep the lift under 3-2.5"

Just a suggestion...

I almost went with 33 glad i went with 35. Just got them on yesterday. It actually measure out to 34, so why waste money on 33.
