If you have rims with stock backspacing, you'll rub on the frame when turning. Now, some people with second gen Blazers are able to fit 31's without a body lift. I was not one of the lucky ones. I still had to do some fender trimming after my body lift to fit mine. Good luck!

you will probably rub on your mud flaps and on the back of your front fenders. I had to trim my fenders pretty good with the same lift as you with 31x10.5's. looks like you have american racing wheels I think the backspacing on those is 4" you won't have to worry about rubbing on the frame just your fender when your turning
