you not going to fit those tires on with cheap lifts unless you get a body lift.

the most common way to make 33s fit is with the 2" t/s lift, and a 3" body lift, otherwise you need to spend some real big money on a suspension lift.

with 13.50's you'll need rims with a pretty good offset also, otherwise they will rub badly and seriously diminish your turning radius.

as stated above, you need 5" of lift to fit 33x12.5 on the stock rims, you will need new rims with a large spacing in order to fit the width a tire you want, and you might even need more lift than the 12.5 to prevent rubbing when turning, and do NOT use wheel spacers, they are alot more trouble than they are worth
