Teraflex 2.5" lift with OME HD springs on the rear (because the TF's sag with expedition weight) and 35" Duratrac's. There is no rubbing. There is really no need to go higher than 2.5" for performance, given the right trimming here and there.
If you are building a rig to actually use out there, then with a 4" lift for 35s you will be giving up some performance (because of higher CG) for very little gain (slightly improved approach and departure angles, some improvement in water fording ability for those parts that are moved higher). If you're building a mall crawler, however, go for the looks you like best. But, do your research and do be aware how much extra you'll have to pay in additional upgrades for that 4" lift.
