Cant decide on whees/tires

[eg78]

Hi all,
I have a 2009 Expedition Limited and I cant decide if I want to put nice sporty 22" mags with sport tires or beefy all terrain tires on it. I like both options. I have a couple of questions.

1) I tow a 6000Lbs. trailer a few times a year in the summer. Does my tire selection affect my towing capability?

2) If I do the a/t thing, what is the biggest, most awesome monster looking wheel/tires I can put on my expedition without lifting it (I have the air shocks and dont want to convert it).

3) If I go the sport option, can I put 22's? how about 24's? without lifting it.

I have a 2-3K budget.
Thanks for any and all input!

it is best to convert it...the air suspension will go out eventually and will cost more than what its worth to fix or replace the system and is absolutely bound to fail again...mine just failed after 8 yrs and everyone on here pretty much had theres fail around 7yrs...they want $1500 to replace o-rings in all four becuz they were bad...$750 later im riding good and never have to worry about any of those issues again...
