33's would be a perfect fit but honestly, you could get 35's under there with just minor rubbing at a full stuff. this is the route i would go

35s are to much tire.

With the stock rims you are going to want to go with a 285/70R17 or add wheel spacers if you want a wider tire.

You could split the difference and get a 295/70/R17, they are almost 34" but in the real world size with weight on them they would probably measure 33.5". You would definately need some wheel spacers.
