Default Yet another tire question

The whole tire sizes and and all the other crap is pretty much Greek to me. I have a 3" body lift and I pretty much wanna cram the biggest tires I can under it w/out rubbing[8D] Right now I have 265/75R16. Stock wheel. I like the look of the tire stick out from the truck a bit, so kinda wider. But I'm poor so don't wanna buy new wheels. Whats pretty much the biggest and widest I can go on a stock wheel w/3" lift?

I asked this a while back and people said 33's won't fit w/out a lift but some people on here have them on they're stock truck.. So will 35's fit on mine?

35's [true 35] will definately rub under suspension compression during a turn or wheeling, espicially if you go 35x12.50 which most 35's are. Also if your diff gears are in the 3.?? range you will lose ALOT of power and probably some gas mileage.
