Fair enough. I have mickey thompson classic lock 2's with baja claws fitted recently. For a rough indication i paid around $3500 for the lot.
In terms of suspension to run 33's the cheap way (if there is such a thing) of doing it would be to fit an OME 2 1/2" ($1200) lift and say a 1" body lift ($250). I am not running a SYE and still on the stock gearing with this setup which is just bearable for now.
Alternatively you could run a 4.5" rubicon express system which is a pretty complete system. As I have been looking into this and the cost is about $3400 plus another $500 for shocks. But you would need a SYE also.
In terms of suspension kits you cant really go wrong with rubicon express equipment and I know many people on this board would agree.
Hope that helps.
