With stock wheels?
If 15's --> 31x10.50, 33x10.50, possibly 32x11.50 (though the 32's might work better with a 15x8?)
If 16's --> 265/75/16.

first off welcome to the forum. the search feature at the top of the page will be your best friend. as for your question if you looked in the wheel and tire sub forum the first thread is a sticky with the max tire sizes, it is also a topic that is covered very often hense why we like it when people search.

heres the link to the thread on tire size.

If you plan on lifting in the future, I would probably go with an 8" wide wheel. If not, probably stick with 7" wide depending on the tire size you decide to run.
Do not go wider than 8" with no lift.

Also, they should really take out the 33x12.50's in that list for stock trucks. Blah.

15x8 and 32x11.50's maybe. They will look okay with the body lift too, until you upgrade to 33's.

15's are cheaper than 16's too. That is one thing that I kicked myself on getting. Even though they look better.

couple exra bucks?? i paid 800 for my 32s and 15 x8 wheels whereas 265s for my stock 16s would have cost 1200. both tire prices were for goodyear mtr

but onto the question.... 32s and a 1 inch body lift looks good.

Would look okay

I think it all depends on tire you get also if you have a 15x10 or 16x10 and the tire isn't that wide you get a bubble affect and the tire wears faster
