Default mce fender, 35'' tires and 2.5 lift

HI! I have a 2015 rubicon and just order my 315/75-16 toyo mt and some wheels 16'' wheel -5mm ( 4.30 back space ) I also order a 2.5 lift kit terralex ( full kit shock and coil ) and I'm planning to order some MCE flate fenders I was wondering if at full flex ( sway bar disconnected the max flex! ) with this recipe I will be rub free!? ( I also have a 1'' poly performance body lift kit but I'm very not sure id I want to install it! I'm planning to resell it but I keep it in back up....)

If any one have similar set up please share some pics!!
thanks

You should clear just fine. We ran a similar set up with 37's and a levelling kit w/MCE fenders and the only thing the tires would just graze at full flex (swaybar disconnected) was the fender support bracket up inside the front wheelwell. You're running a smaller tire and likely the Tera kit has an extended bumpstop so it's doubtful you'll have any rubbing whatsoever.

This is in Moab last year. Disconnected front sway bar. 37 12.5 17 BFG's with a teraflex front spring leveling kit. Worked well, though breakover would be improved with a some lift. Super stable though off camber.
