What diameter have you been running up to now? You should be able to get the same diameter tire, just for a bigger wheel.
You should be ok with 27" tires. Either 255/45/18 or 275/40/18, they are approx. 27" tall. I have a 2/3 drop with 29" tires, 255/65/16, and I have hit the front driver side a couple times on a big bump. Never hit in the rear.

hey i got those pirelli tires too....make a cool
noise when burning out cause of the fat tread.
If you dont have fender flares, I would probably
go with 255/45/18...that way your speedo's not
off.
