First answer is it depends on the year, because the SRW 99-03 and the 04- current have a different suspension in front and the newer guys seem to squeeze a little more in there before they rub.
BUT.
You have a dually. Theres a spacing between the two rear tires that's going to have to be maintained. I dont have a dually, so I can't say a specific size, I'm sure you can fit height wise more than you have, probably up to a 33", but that affects the tread width as well, and you could end up with your rear tires against each other.

My 05 has 17 X 7.5" wheels with 265 70 17 as stock size seems the biggest tire for that rim width is 285 70 17. I Picked -up some Goodyear silent armour tires on E-bay but havn't recieved them yet. Hope to install them soon.
