Need help...

i have a ZJ with a 3.5"lift and i am lookin running 32"tyres i am concerned that i will lose a lot of wheel travel when i put them on and was hoping to avoid cutting the gaurds at least for now... is there any reason anyone can think of that a set of 1" coil spacers (shocks can suit up to 4.5" of lift) would not be a good idea to help me gain a bit more clearance over these tyres.

i know 4.5"springs might also be an idea but i olnly just put the lift kit in a month ago and am not ready to re-spend cash on my new parts, but don't mind spending time working this out.

Please help
