I don't know if you would have to cut much but you would probably have to trim the bulkhead.

If you are doing the work on the body and are happy to do the work on the arches then why not go back to SPUA and cut the arches out?

Well worth it for extra stability, lower centre of gravity, and improved handling.

This is how it sits now

Just try it. I would imagine they will at least foul the bulkhead at lock though.

You could try put a sheet of wood or similar against the outer edge of your current tyres and line it up so it sticks out as much as a 33 would.

Can always redrill the perches too to move the axle forwards a bit. Easy enough to do.
