Unless you go with 32/10.5or11.5/15 you will get an uneven wear pattern on stock rims, if you try 32/12.5/15 they will wear funny. That being said I would go for 32's because once you put the 31's on you will wish you did(I did anyways). Excellent all around tire would be BFG AT KO...I've ran most of the popular tires a/t tires on all of our work trucks through rough trails/mud/ice roads and I prefer the BFG's. Pump them up to 35psi and they will last a very long time with a proper alignment/routine rotation.

in order to fit 31's on a non zr2 blazer ur gonna need atleast 2inches of lift and to run 32's youll need atleast 5inches of lift, just a lil FYI before you go out and buy tires that will be to big unless you already have a lift then buy away.

It would help us to know the year model and how much of a lift is on your Blazer. Is it a ZR2?

with the 3inches of lift stick to the 31's and also keep an eye on ur cv angles that seems like alot of lift from new keys.

I would go with 31"s. You will probably want to do a 2" body lift as well.

would it be smarter to go only 2ins in the front? and would that still have room for the 31s?
