Default 33x12.5x15 Question

If my wheels dont fit because they are running against the caliper, can i just get wheel spacers to push them out a little bit..I would rather do that then grind the caliper ??

I think people have used those little dangerous spacers to push the wheels out. when I first ordered my 15" wheels, I was thinking I would just run 1.5" spacers IF the new wheells rubbed. then Ryan (2K2wrangler) pointed out to me that IF I did that, the wheels I had ordered were 4" BS minus 1.5" spacers is 2.5"BS.. which would put a lot of stress on the bearings axles etc.. so I decided that if they rubbed I would grind the calipers, my wheels came in, tires mounted on them, I test fitted one, no rubbing, then the other, again no rubbing... I didnt have any clearance issues on mine very happy about that..
