Default 31" A/Ts no lift

Alright so I had about 20 people tell me that I couldnt fit 31" tires on my Jimmy with no lift and no cutting.. Guess what, they fit no problem, only time they ever rub is at full compression at almost full lock, and they just hit the top of the front fender, not the back where everyone else seems to have to cut. I know its weird, im actually surprised by it. The tires are 31x10.5x15 Firestone Destination ATs and surprisingly these all terrains are great so far, I take her out at least 3 times a week in the mud and sand and havent gotten stuck yet, I mean its been nothing super serious but my buddys ZR2 with 33's for stuck last friday on the trail infront of me and I didnt.

Follow me and we'll see how much rubbing and getting stuck you find yourself in. Not trying to come across as an @$$, just trying to steer others on the forum in the right direction.

I have the same size set of Goodyear Wrangler's sitting in my garage waiting to be decided if I wish to install them or sell them. I have a 2nd gen 4 door (early 02') and debated seeing if I could squish them under the truck. I don't plan on mudding in the truck but it does occasionally see some fields. Ideas/opinions?
