Ben, you can do the maths yourself. The car comes standard with 29 inch tyres and you can fit 30 inch tyres without issue. So if you fit 32 inch tyres, the increase in radius of the tyre is only 1 inch. So the tyre comes 1 inch closer to the guards. If you lift the body by 1 inch yopu move the distance between the tyre and guard back to standard. All 4 door classic range rovers have the same axle and wheel arch size. I ran 32 inch tyres with soft springs and a 1 inch body lift for years without any issue. 33 inch tyres will start grabbing the rear doors, this when you need to start some cutting.

Where these people running 3 inch lifts for 32 inch tyres running spring or body lifts. Spring lifts do not allow bigger tyres, except if they limit the upward travel of the wheel.
