Tire/Wheel/lift question.

a couple of quick questions:

I've got a 97 K2500, and I would like to put a set of 315/75 R16s on it. those wheels come out to 35's (34.6 to be precise) with a section width of 12.4 inches. would I use 12 inch wide wheels or 12.5s?

second question: what size lift would I need to put under my truck to accommodate those tires?

and last: would it be better to use a body lift, or a suspension lift?
