I would say the 235's are a good bet. You might be able to squeeze some small 30's. You just have to watch very carefully for rubbing.

Shoot, take the whole body off and you could run 46's without spacers!  ;D

30's should fit with no problems... how much sag you have on the stock springs will dictate the size though.. with no say, 30's would be a piece of cake..roughly 1" difference between 235 and 30"..so with 1 1/5 spacers you should actually be sitting a little higher..just remember.. 1" difference only means 1/2" on either side for clearance..
