Are you using stock wheels? Do you have any rubbing issues at full turn or articulation? If not, then you're fine. Most with larger 33's will have some rubbing do to the extra width of the tire on the stock wheel offset.

You can definitely tell a difference between spaced and not spaced. Drives like stock, looks even better.
That's with a 285/75 R16 M/T (33") on stock X wheels.
When I didn't have the spacers, on full articulation with swaybars disconnected, I never rubbed. I have 1.75" spacers up front and 0.75" in the rear. Came within an inch of the inner fenderwells.
I'll have to check if I rub the fender flare's lip now next weekend on my wheeling trip.
