I think it looks great as is. I'd probably put 16s on it. None of the new tires (like the BFG AT T/A KO2) are available in 16.5, and the new compounds make a big difference.

For the missus, you could put step bars on it to make it easier to get in and out. The Aries (204041 in black; 204041-2 in stainless) fit the squarebody LBs and aren't too hard to mount up. I put the 204040 on my RCSB a year and a half back, and I like them.

Amazon.com: Aries 204041 3" Black Side Step...

Here's how the powder-coated black ones look on my lift. The tires are 31x10.5R15. I adjusted the angle so they would be parallel to the ground despite a split lift (+2/+3).
