Default 37's with flat fenders+daystar boost

My 33 Baja Claws are nearing their end. I've got 40k on them now and expect to get about 10k more before I replace them.
My next mod is to install bushwhacker flat fenders and up my tire size to 35s. I've been wondering if I might be able to go to 37s if I combine a daystar 1 3/4 spacer lift with the flat fenders. Has anyone tried this? My rims have 3.5 backspace and I plan to use them with my next set of tires. I'm already geared to 5.13 so no issues there.

Forgot to mention, my motivation to go conservative on the lift is that I still want to park in my garage. So it needs to fit in the door. I have about 4 1/2 inches of clearance at present

And remember going from 33 to 37 only lifts you 2 inches....theoretically

Sorry for being off topic but how are 5.13s with 33s?
