Depends on if you're willing to run wheel spacers, what wheels you plan on running and are you willing to do some trimming of either the pinch seam or strut.

After you have installed your Daystar lift you can run up to 30" tires.

16" factory wheels - 235/75R16 = 29.9" - 235/70R16 = 29"
17" factory wheels - 235/70R17 = 30" - 235/65R17 = 29"
18" factory wheels - 235-65R18 = 30" - 235/60R18 = 29.1"

With any of these tire sizes you will need to move the tire out 1/2" to 3/4" farther than stock to clear the lower spring perch on the struts. You can either use spacers or change to wheels with a different offset.

The factory wheels come with 40mm positive offset.

For example, wheels with a 17mm positive offset will move the inside edge of the 235/70R17 tire out 0.51" and wheels with a 10mm offset will move the inside edge of the 235/70R17 tire out 0.78".
