how big is your mate thinking? There isn't really an easy way in short the gearing becomes too high, the CV's cant take the extra strain and you lose steering lock with tyre rub

somewhere in the middle of fitting big tyres to a Suzuki and 'leave it like it is' is a middle ground where you can fit 29-31 inch tyres relatively easy with a body and suspension lift.

I put 245/75/16 (30.5) on standard rims on mine V6 with a 2" suspension lift. There was guard rub but after a grinder, hammer and some bump stop spacers fixed that. The front end gets a hammering so he might have to get used to changing diffs and cv's depending on his driving style!
