Generally speaking in all states a vehicle cannot be lifted more than 2 inches/50mm.... there may be some tolerance here and there but I do know that in Qld and NSW they occasionally go on "blitzes" re 4WD height.
Sometimes a "bigger" tyre (say 265 vs 245) is not higher in terms of diameter but may have a bigger circumference (rolling dimeter as some call it).

Personally I can not see the value of having an extremist lift with tyres plus/minus bigger tyres. The Rubicon is more than capable with what it comes with in my opinion and experience. You need to remember that with added height and bigger tyres comes increased wind resistance, increased rolling resistance and increased fuel costs.
With my 07 Rubicon I put on a 2" lift (now probably sunk to about 1.5 inches) plus 265/75/17 tyres over the originals which were 255s. There was hardly any height change due to tyre change. I have been everywhere with this set up without a problem. I know some people want things bigger cos they do things differently than me and go different places than me.
But bigger isn't necessarily better.... an old girlfriend of mine told me once that where she had interactions with men with bigger dicks, they did not necessarily do better than those with smaller ones. It is entirely dependent on how you use what you have got...
Just my 2 cents worth.
