Default Making my 92 S15 Jimmy more aggressive?

Looking to add a more aggressive (wider stance, bigger tires) look to my 2 door S15 Jimmy. What are some pros & cons of suspension lift vs body lift? I don't want to go crazy. Looking at a 2.5" suspension lift 30" tires w/17" wheels. Do I need that much lift? Currently sporting 235/75R15. Any tips or advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I currently have 29.75 inch tires with no lift at all which dont rub but a very little. Where they do rub is at the rear of the fender opening. Lifting the body or lowering the suspension wont help rubbing there as thats at 9:00, 3:00. As a matter of fact my truck is lowered 2in and that didnt make the problem worse, but it sure did handle better.
