Right now my xj is running the 16” Moab Rubicon wrangler rims on 31” tires with no rubbing. I am thinking of moving up to 33” tires. what width of wheel spacers would I need to make sure I am not going to rub the frame in the front when I steer? Also I will be installing an 8.8 explorer axle this summer. I would like to get spacers for the rear so the width will be the same as the front. M.O.R.E. off-road said to use the 7/8” spacers and that would get me back out to almost the width of the 8.25. However if I am adding spacers to the front to get the 33inch tire's to not rub, what width of spacers would I need to make up the difference with the 8.8 axle so I can get the same stance?
 
i went with spacers from rough country. cheapest i could find. very happy with the quality, and i didnt have to replace/shorten my current wheel studs.

1.5", will net you about 3.5" of backspacing with moabs. i run 285/75s which comes out to about a 33x11.50. im very content with it. no rubbing.
