Default max tire size on stock 18's

I'm looking to run 33's with my teraflex leelin kit. I currently have 18" sahara rims. What's the max width I can run without spacers?

275/70/18 is closest tire size that SHOULD NOT rub on jeep frame or parts.

Thats the size ive been looking at. Its 1" taller than what i'm running right now (275/65/18) It looks like a wider tire would complete the look i'm going for but I'm just not ready to run spacers.

I ran 295/65/18 Duratracs that "touched" the swaybar / frame slightly at full lock.
