I have a 2.5" on mine with 1" block on back. (Rough Country) I am running 295/70/18s (Nitto Trail Grappler M/T) on my stock rims. I have a 2WD and I am BARELY clearing them on the control arm. There is no way I could go any wider unless I installed new rims. As far as the height of your tire I am unsure, but you will likely be cutting it close there too.

I have 34s on 20s with a 2 inch level. And they rub slightly on my mud flaps at full lock. I can't remember how wide they are. But its the stock rim. I wouldn't go any bigger than a 34 without a lift.
