I agree on 33's. I like a little bit of space in the wheel wells

I think you should confirm the same with a good tire installer or tire dealer because they are expertise on the same.

I just installed a levelling kit and 35s on a 2nd gen this morning. Rub just a tad but not like a Chevy.

Yup. If you turn the wheel all the way in one direction then the tire might rub on your lower control arm.
