Default 32" tyres and lift

Will a 32x11.5x15 tyre fit with 4.5"-5.5" of lift with no/minimal trimming? What I'm considering is going a little higher when I replace my tyres and tracbar and getting 32's instead of the planned 31's.

I want to keep the stock flares in the stock position, I dont mind trimming the inside of the flares etc, is this possible or should I just stick with the 31's? Oh and I do disconnect

Cheers
Steve

Damn, one for and one against. So any idea on how much bumpstop and trimming, dont mind trimming up under the flares etc but I want it to have a stock looking body.

Yeah, thinking about all that too, this will be the most expensive mod to the XJ I've done (If I go with 32's), got to buy the wife a new car first as a daily driver luckily she likes the new Suzuki Swift
