33's will fit with an 8" rim a 10 inch rim will require a little trimming

The 589's have a backspacing of 3.25". If you go with 33's, even with a 15x8 wheel, you will probably still have to do a little trimming to the outside fender wells to avoid rubbing. I had to on mine. I was really afraid to trim at first, but am glad I did. You really can't even tell. But if you run 32's, you should be fine, probably even with a 15x10 wheel.

The bottoms of the fender flares if you have them and the front lower valance. I also forgot that with yours being a 2wd, you don't have torsion bars to crank up and will probably rub a little more than I did.

I have the 3" PA body lift on a 4X4. Since mine is 4wd, I have a 3" head start on you. Your 3" PA lift put you at my stock height. If you add on the suspension lift, we should be even.
