You could run 35" tires with no rubbing.
What gears depends on a number of things: What your diff gearing is (either 3.21, 3.73, or 4.10) and whether you've got an auto or a manual tranny.
Either way, many people run 35's without re-gearing. Whether it's optimal is up to you.

If you choose the 2.5bb you will be able to run 35's comfortable! I am running a rubicon express 2.5bb with 33's and have plenty of room for 35's. As far as gearing I would get 4.88's if you are planning to run 35's. However, if you think you will go with a bigger lift in the future and will run anything bigger than 35's I would get 5.13's. Hope this helped!!

Gas mileage isn't my biggest concern, but has anyone noticed how much it changes when you bump it up to 4.88 or 5.13?
