please do not put big tires on a 2 wheel drive

 

If you go with 18's you can go with 285/60's (31.5x11) or if you add a leveling kit up front you can get 325/60's (33x12.50) on there. Personally I'd add the leveling kit and the 33's myself. 285's just are a big enough upgrade over stock to warrant spening the money unless you HAVE to buy new tires right now.

Another thing to keep in mind is whether you are going with stock wheels or aftermarket wheels. With stock wheels you have to worry about the tires being too wide for the wheel and with aftermarket wheels you have to keep backspacing in mind or you will have rubbing issues.
