i would try and get 35s if possible, my jeep is my daily driver as well and it isnt the best, but i still get 15-16 on the highway, a 3" lift on a jku and 33s will look rather small i think.
 
Cold air intake , a good flowing exhaust like s magna flow, flow master or borla, and a super chips flashpaq tuner will go a long way toward better mileage.

Well I did a 2.5 BB lift and its her dd I do hear about it Ohh let's say every time we are in it together lol . She is coming around though.the only reason I gave that tire size is because I have the 2.5" with 32's and it looks a little awkward and the 315/70/17 is just over 34" and I think it fills the gap better. But you may lose a little mpg .

Most metric tires of 305 and 315 measure in the 34" range +/- a little.

Its a ratio. The first number is the width in mm and the second number is the percent or ratio of the sidewall height. So a 305/50r17 will have a smaller sidewall or overall tire size than a 305/75r17. There are online metric to standard tire size conversion online if u Google it.

Ahh thanks. I've used the conversion calc. Many times to figure out what size was closest to 34's.

take your time and look at a lot of Jeeps before you commit to lifts and tires. Begin with the end in mind and build it to how you plan to use it. If you use your Jeep a lot good suspension is the most important in my opinion.
