I am going to stick a cheap £90 2inch lift kit of ebay on it soon but was looking to buy the tyres first ... what about 215 70 15s ?

you may just fit the 215's but still might catch
i have a set of smx in 195 80 16 for trials
Also tried special tracks 205 80 16 lots of catching
running on 3" lift

The choice of tyre is the issue
trekkers,special tracks are very square with the big side lugs
on my other rims i have 225/75/16 bfg km2's these are rounded on tread edge
my 195/80/16 trekkers are 720mm high and 200mm wide
I would say 195/80/15's would possibly work well with 2" lift in a trekker type tread
BUT tyres can be an expensive mistake SO ultimately it's your choice

I run 195/80/15 Insa Turbo on my 2007 with a 2" lift. There doesn't look to be much room to go any bigger without cutting. I looked into this when I got my Jim a couple of years ago, and this size seems to be the best fit.
