Well I just got the 3" suspension lift and I have a 1" body lift so I have a total of 4" of lift. I am now debating on bigger tires next (33x12.5x15), or if I go for a front spool locker. Is it better to get the extra 1.5" Diff clearance over the extra traction of the locker or vise versa? Any (good) input would be greatly appriciated.

Would help if you told us some real specs, like what axles you have (and ratios,) or hell, even what vehicle....
I am running a 98 Jeep Wrangler sport, 4.0 litre, Dana 30/35 combo with 3:73 gears and a limited slip in the rear.

Short answer... both. But if you can afford only one, do the locker. 1.5" of clearance isn't going to get you out of much trouble.

That was kinda my thinkingas well but I wanted to get some advice from people who have been there.

(33x12.5x15),
In times like these, supercharge.
Keep on trucking,
