Default 31x10.5x15 on stock suspension and rims?

I can get some 31x10. 5" michilen tires for dirt cheap. I have an 02 chevy blazer ls 4 door with 2wd. I was wondering if these will fit in my wheel wells before I commit. I have 235x70r15's on now. I don't want to have to do a body lift in the winter if I can get away with it till it warms up

Prolly fit if you never have to turn the steering wheel.

There have been people who say they fit 31x10.5's on a stock setup, but the vast majority of people find that they need to lift to prevent these tires from rubbing both the frame and the fenders. Like LeWhite said, you might get them in there, but I doubt you'll be able to drive and turn the wheel without rubbing, especially on bumps.

31" tires will fit on a 4x4(really tight), but not on the 2wd.

I've got an 01 4x4 with stock height and 30's, rubs pretty badly while turning on uneven ground. If I turn the wheel while parked and get out to look, I have about less than an inch of clearance between the fender and the tire.. Trimming the bumper for clearance is easy, but you'll have to hammer in the wheel wells for some room, but unless you want to hammer and trim the actual body, it'll probably rub..
