    How much lift is needed to fit.....

    I'm curious how much lift I would need to fit 33x12.5x16 TSL-SSR series tires on my Eagle alloy rims. Would 2.5"-3" be enough? How can I get an extra inch to inch and a half of lift if these won't fit with a lift: either 912 springs (2.5") or Calmini (3"). I have trimmed the front of the front fender already to fit my 31x11.5x16 but I don't really want to trim anything off of the back of the front wheel well. Can I even go 12.5" wide? If not I guess I will go with the 32x11.5x16's. The tires I have now stick out about an inch how it is on the same rim these are to be mounted on. Rim dimensions are below...

    SIZE: 16x10
    FINISH: Polished
    PATTERN: 6 on 5.5
    OFFSET: -24 mm
    BSM: 4.50
    CAP: N/I
    LOAD: 3420 lbs.
    WEIGHT: 23 lbs.

    Thanks in advance,
    Alan
