new 5 lug owner looking for common sense direction on wheel/tire upgrade.

the answers to my questions are probably imbedded in several threads already, but i was hoping to get a more direct advisement on my issues. i would like to upgrade my wheel/tire package to something a little more functional for moderate off road use. understand 90% of my use is to work and back, not looking to create an off road monster (or i wouldnt have bought a 2wd).
so, do i simply install larger wheel/tires with existing suspension? do i upgrade suspension without lift to accomodate? do i install modest lift? i have a warranty from toyota on the truck and i dont want to void it, also i dont want to wear stuff out or sacrifice ride for the sake of wheel/tire upgrade.
