35"s are perfect! 33"s would of been too small.
Agreed. Im running 35's on mine and only minor rub. I may try the 2'' bumpstop fix for now.

After reading through this, that is what I am getting out of it. The only thing is the articulation. The opinion floating around this thread seams to be that you will be fine with no rubbing with the bump stops but articulation really wasn't pinpointed. I mean I don't see why you wouldn't get good articulation. but with a 3" it may be better.

I keep thinking about it, but I'm not sure I could squeeze under my garage door.

Yup. You might add some brake line drop brackets for the rear, but that's about it.
