I am running 275/70/18 ATs, comes out to 33.2" according to my calculations. I actually ran them with stock suspension for a small time frame. Though I had to dremel the plastic sorroundings a bit and adjust the angle of the front bumper so the bottom of it did not rub the tires. Running a 2" lift now and it's great, though still rubs at times when full-steering-lock parking.

I would suggest a HD OME lift, giving you at least 2.5"s and you won't have any clearance issues.

Dremel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It's just like a smaller version of a drill. With attachments more focused on cutting and grinding. There's a plastic cutting bit I picked up at Lowes for ~$10 that slices through plastic like it's silk. Some of the plastic pieces sorrounding the tires rubbed up against the bigger tires. So I used this tool to trim off the parts that rubbed.
