From the picture it looks like you might have a leveling kit. Could you snap a picture of the front suspension?

It's going to hard to tell from the angle of your current picture. Take a few of the suspension components under the car and some one should be able to tell you pretty quickly. May even be able to you brand as well.

I wanna say it almost looks like a 2 or 2.5 seems to be alot of clearance left for 33s but my opinion its about as valueable as a 800 year old turd

You could get 35's under there with some cutting. I wouldn't take it offroad though.
