35"s are great and everything but to wheel it and not be worried it takes alot of work. With either lift you are gonna have to trim there is no way around it. 4.5 takes alot of trimming but 5.5 or 6.5 will take noticably less. Once you are lifted then axle strength, steering, gears, etc... have to be addressed. Thats where the big money starts coming in. Can you survive without them yes, is it a night and day difference when it is done right? You bet. 33's on stock axles isn't bad but you will find people that break them. My recommedation is the RE 4.5 with 32's or 33's and by the time you run through those tires you will have built everything up around it so that you can run 35's without worries. Just my.02
