Jimny Modifications

I had an SJ which I used to take to pay and play sites and all that had on it was mud terrains other than that it was stock and for the most part unstoppable
For the looks I did this - Mine's red so, I plastikoted the wheels black, dark-ish tints on windows and a de-badge, smoked side repeaters, plastikote black the spare wheel cover, black wind deflectors on windows, fabric sprayed the fabric on the door cards black and installed a black leather interior, chrome door pins and interior handles (not exterior urgh lol) added interior mood lighting, bodged a double din stereo dvd screen and 4 speakers in and alarm system, then some decent mats and I think it looks a bit meaner, certainly over stock, to me anyway.

I know that many of the modifications on this build are more than I will need especially for more daily driving than off-roading however the main thing for me is the wheel sizes and how much I could push without lifting (lifting will come at a later stage). Could anybody suggest a way, or what tyre sizes and rims will fit whilst also maintaining good grip for weekend off-roading and also not looking too small for the vehicle if you know what I mean.
Thats my old motor! Miss it now In that pic it was on 235/75r15 tyres, a 2"+2" lift and Alaplast arches well trimmed if that helps. There were gearing changes needed to get those tyres on, but not drastic stuff. It evolved into a bigger machine later in my ownership, sold it before xmas and its turned up on ebay now for an awful lot more than I sold it for...
