with a 3" lift in the GU you should be right fitting 33s.

Hope it goes well

edit... I thought 3 inch was suspension lift...

do they scrub out now??? Cros it up and check. I think you should be fine with almost no lift.

I have a GU ute with coils all round 3 inch lift and run 285/75 no problems. YOu shouldn't need any body lift.
