Default Rubbing and look of the tire/rim combo?

Okay, I have a White 2001 Blazer LS 2 door 4x4 (stock). Im looking to transform the look of my truck for low cost (under $1000). I've done a good amount of research and thisis my choice:

30 x 10.5 Super Swamper TSL Radial Tires (15x8 rim) [Actual Diameter: 29.7, Width 10.2]
Rock Crawler Series 82 White Powder Steel Rims 15 x 8, 4.5" backspacing

My question is how bad will I rub and if it's doable, and how people think it will look with the white rims on aggresive tires, combined with the white finish I have on my blazer. In choosing the white rims I want to get a look not many other blazers have. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! (below is a picture of my blazer on 31x10.5 BFGoodrich Long Trail Tires)

No need to keep starting threads for an identical topic. You started another one yesterday that was deleted.

Also, your Blazer has the ZR2 Offroad Package so compared to other blazers, yours is already lifted and has a wider stance. You should be alright as far as rubbing goes but if you rub at all, you can always crank the t-bars a little
