Default newb tire/wheel question

this is what i would like to put on my 4dr 4wd 99 blazer.
i plan on doing a 1.5" t-bar lift and 2" shackle before taking this step.

cragar soft 8 (http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-3977834P/)
16X8

backspacing 5 inch
offset +12.00 mm

with a 255/70/16 or 31X1050 (assuming will rub with 31)

from what searching i have done this should work.
looking for feedback/suggestions for what looks good(pics) before i go out shopping.

thanks.

you should be fine with the 255's if you do have to trim it shouldnt be bad at all.
