33's are about the limit if the springs are in good shape. A 255/85R16 would fit easier than a 33/12.50-16.5 or 285/75-16. Those old Chevy's look great with 4-6" of lift and 35-36" tires.

If this helps, my Ex is at stock height with 305/70R16's on stock Ford 16X8 rims. They look pretty good if I don't say so myself!

There's also no rubbing anywhere, either.

Just pick up a 4Wheel and Off Road or Fourwheeler magazine and there are tons of ads to get anyting you may need. National Tire and Wheel usually has some good deals (NTWonline.com).
