Yes... If you jack up the front of your stock explorer from the frame and let the wheels fall, it will look like that.

I know this is old. but my plan is 5.5 " lift and 33's.
but I guess I get some 35's later.. need $ for gears first

That is essential, minimum should put 4.56 or higher, depending on how you use it to your vehicle.

I ran 4.88s with 32s for a few years. Planned ahead knowing id get to 35s. Glad I did. Almost wish I would of gone 513s(or relative) Im running the 5.5 lift and 3 in body and still rub with 35s on

i have 33x12.5x15 with a 5.5 superlift and a 3 inch bodylift. i really dont like the way it looks. i am going up to a 35" tire. the biggest problem is the wheel well gap is massive. the issue i am having is even with all the gap in height, the way the tires turn there is still a little rubbing issue with a 35" tire.

You can trim where they rub. I imagine it's at the back of the fender? Search the site for how other people have trimmed to clear tires. Good luck.
