31's, I've got them on my '95 and they just barely rub, any bigger and you'd rub on the air dam and the inner fender

31 for cranked up torsion bars. 33s with 2inbody lift 35s with 4in lift and 2inbody
On stock rims you can do 12.5 width but you may get a little rubbing on the frame just back the steering wheel off a 1/4in and your good. I have 33x12.5r15

Ya pepboys do! they can order any tire in too. But I go to 4wheel parts they have great prices as well as charge only$5 for install each! Which incudesnew valve stem and mouting and balincing and free tire repairs and rotatons and balincing in the future. They also do price matching and beat by 10%.
