You might want to start a new thread to get some opinions. Honestly, 2.5" lift and 35s is a nice look and it's going to take you just about anywhere. Keep in mind that you'd probably net more than the stated 2.5" of actual lift. You should plan on replacing drive shafts, correcting caster, and thinking about some upgraded steering components along the way if you're going to get in to anything more than light offroading. You'll be looking for a wheel with 4.5" BS for a 35, or else you'll need to run a spacer.

That's just my opinion, but I think you'll find many that generally agree. Check out Dirtman's sticky at the top of the modified section for some good info.
