Default Do i need spacers?

Ok I bought a 1.75" lift kit for my girlfriends jeep that she wanted ... It's made by rock Krawler and all it is is 4 coil spacers and front discos.. So my question is my gf wants 33s and I just have her my stock 17" sport rims.. So she will have stock sport rims on some 33" tire or close to it ... So with that said do I nneed wheel spacers?

X2. The lift will be enough to get the 33's under the Jeep. The spacers will be needed to keep from rubbing the suspension.
