lift options for 33x12.50x17 (92 4runner sr5)

okay so i have a 92' 4runner sr5 3.0L V6 2WD Automatic

-i currently have 31x10.50x17 tires on now with Stock Fj cruiser rims.

-its almost time to get new tires and i want to go with 33x12.50 BFGoodrich A/T tires.

-i have tried so hard to find a straight forward answer on what i have to do to make them fit. i don't want to do any trimming or messing around with my fenders.

-so could some one make a list of the exact lift kit or body lift to make these tires fit?

-im the kind of person that needs a straight forward answer, and with all these different options to lift my 4runner, and to make these tires fit i don't know what to do....some one please help!!!!

p.s i am looking to lift her about 3-4 inches but don't want to break the bank
and if anyone has pictures on how it looks that would be awesome!!!!

On a side note, can you post a picture of your 4Runner, as I'm interested in the looks of 17 inch rims on a 2nd gen.

to be honest I have never owned a 2nd gen 4Runner and haven't really paid a lot of attention as to what you could fit. the advantage of you owning a 2WD is that changing out your gears will only be half as much.

I think 33's with stock gears and an auto would kind of be a performance killer.

Have you considered 32x10.50's or 33 x 10.50's instead of 12.50's? they will give you a little more heighth but be easier on the bearings and axles..

I didnt know the width impacted it that much...i have 31x10.50 on her now...i wouldn't mind the 10.50 as long as they are better for her...i just wanted the 33s to make her sit a little higher and for looks

in the 86-95 folder (might be in the link i send you) there should be a thread like "show your pics" that will have a few examples of what you are looking for..
