It depends on the kind of lift....

Tires make no real difference for travel.

Tires contribute to clearance, not travel. Your suspension will dictate how much travel you have. What's the lift?

Same amount as stock if you don't have extended travel coil overs.

Coilovers, or blocks? If you go blocks, you turn the 5.5 inches of stock travel to about 2.5 inches of usable travel - I think.

With any suspension lift (not blocks) the control arms will be the limiting factor on gaining travel. New UCAs are needed to improve droop.

Funny... This got moved to wheels and tires when it's really a suspension question. It must have been done based on the title, not content. @JimBeam
