What should be a good starting point to a more aggressive look? 2.5-3" lift with 31-33" tires?
What is the largest tires that I can put on without a lift of some kind? New at this, so please go easy on me. Thanks for any input.

33s will fit without a lift. Need more back spacing on your wheels either with a spacer or new wheels.

2.5" lift will fit you some 35s.
