Much more then 1" more out of the suspension, either with springs or spacers and you'll start to destroy CV's. 3" body lifts aren't really worth the effort.

vitaras do however have a TON of metal that can be removed from the arches =P i drove a vitara for a while which ran 32x12.5r15's on it with ZERO lift and standard, sagged springs. The angle grinder had a hard life the weekend those were fitted - but they only scrubbed on full compression =P
