Minimum of 4" plus cut fenders wouldn't be a bad idea. Depends if you plan on wheeling it or showing it off.

Then you would be good with a 2.5" lift. I run a 2.5" TF coil with Bilstein and a 1" body lift and have PLENTY of space for my 35's even at full flex.

This is a side view. There isn't any rake, just down slope of my works parking lot.

2.5 Teraflex lift should be fine. Check out the thread "show your 35s", plenty of photos with 2.5" lifts.
