Why? My lift was designed to allow the fitment of the 315s with a body lift and I knew going into it that there would be some cutting involved. The main reason we had to cut my front end was due to the low height I decided to set the front Billies at (2"). It still rubs a bit and may need a bit more trimming but I am very happy with how everything works together.
Here is another thread on lifts. 4runner 202020 has a great picture of his 35"ers STUFFED into his rear well.

Well according to 4Runner202020 sig he's not running a BL at all. So it must be magic! Though it looks to me that that 315 fits in the hole just fine. My 295's fit too yeah.

mine only rubed in the back because i dont have a panhard (or whatever its called) drop bracked so my axle is not completely centered. but it doesn't rub there now. only on the gas tank line protectent thing in the drivers side wheel well. i'll show your gerdo next snow run we all do.

I'm not sure how a 35" tire can fit into a 33" hole. (I roughly measured a 33" opening in the rear fenders)

Obviously, I'm wrong. 35"ers will fit into the rear wheelwells.

Heres a thought. If I were to buy another set of offroad tires and went with 35's what could be my expected numbers for mpg? I have 4.56's and get 16-17's with my 33's. I was thinking of BFG KM2's in 315.75.16
BFG KM2
34.8 X 12 for a 315
Interco SSR
33.9 X 11.4 for a 285
35.3 X 11.1 for a 35x10.5
while I like the 33's just had a yearning for 35's I have had the 285 Interco's but didn't have gears just yet.
