Wheel Selection?

I have a 93 4X4 extended cab pickup with a 2" body lift and stock suspension. I currently have 33x12.5 tires mounted to 15" stock rims (I'm finding out this is a bad setup). My tires rub the frame when I turn sharp, but don't contact the body or fenders anywhere. Is there a wheel width/offset/backspacing that will eliminate this frame rubbing and not require me to modify the height (body or suspension) of my truck? I am currently looking at a set of 15X10 steel wheels with a 4" backspacing, but I am afraid this setup will cause the tire to rub the front lower valence on my truck. My truck spends more time on the road then off the road (I am embarrassed about that too). No rock climbing here in Florida either. Any help would be appreciated.

my 92 has a 3" body lift, and 31 x 10.50 Summit Radial Trail Climbers on it, and they do not rub. It also has 16" ICW "six spoke" (as id call them) alloy rims. Everything clears well, and no signs of rubbing.
