you wont really get any bigger tire under with just suspension lift than no lift cause the tires still travel up into the wheel arches the same

but 235 are a pretty easy fit unmodified, providing you dont go too wide in the rim offset, I have -13mm 15x7 and it gave me all kinds of trouble but same tires on stock rims are fine

30's, probably hammer the rear of the front arch and maybe bumpstop spacers in the rear

31's, 2" bodylift
