5 inches is generally enough to fit 35's. I don't know if the O/R edition got any axle trussing, so, that may be as large as you want to go. If they are going to rub, it will be on the lower control arms of the front suspension. Slightly lower backspacing on the wheels would fix that, or, just don't turn that sharp.

I think this was debated before... but, once you get over 3" of lift, (and you are already starting with 2.....) you need to address the front control arms as well. I don't know if the Off Road edition trucks came with longer control arms than the non-OR trucks.....
Once you get over that magic number 3, lifts start getting expensive.....

...also the cost of an alignment
