My new 1970 Blazer

Tomorrow I am picking up a 1970 Blazer. This will be my first project so I was very picky to make sure I wasn't too far over my head. (And because I was picky the wallet is much lighter than I would have liked). As with other threads I've read, I started out lookin for a Bronco, and then fell in love with the Blazer.

I am going to apologize now as I will probably blow up this board with questions and advice along with requests for pics for ideas from you other members...

I plan to have a little fun in my new ride before I start doing things to it. It currently has 33-13.50-15 super swamper tires. I want to drive it around town, so I was goin to get some AT's. I feel like with the lift on it right now (5" suspension with 2" body), the tires look way too small.

So here are my first questions about the tires:
Keep 15" rims or go larger?(16 or 17?)
Go with 35" tires?
Stay with 33" and remover 2" body? (Leaning toward removing the body lift anyway)

Greatly appreciate any and all feedback.
