Seems like a lot of lift for that size tire IMO. Have you looked on Google images?

I ran 285/75-17 toyos with a 1.5" lift and it looked good for a 3" lift and flat fenders you will need bigger tires. I am running flat fenders and 35" now and about right.

285 are too small with 3 inch lift, flat fenders will make is exponentially worse.

There are a BUNCH of picture threads down in JK Show & Tell.

But I can't find any ...

Use this in Google, followed by whatever it is you want to search on.

For instance, this:
site:www.jk-forum.com 33's 3"

Gets you this:

Flat fenders and 35s would look good and work awesome. Stock fenders and a lift with 35s is ok. Both is logically and visually silly.
