I really like the looks of the Toyo Open Country MT's but they dont make a size that will fit on my stock wheels and fit clearence wise. There are also a little pricey.

If i get 31" BFG A/T's or M/T's will they fit with a 2in suspension lift without rubbing during daily driving. I know they will off road but what about onroad.

BFG AT's do very nice on road. I have not had any problems with noise. Right when you get them, they will feel really squishy and might be a little noisy, but after about 500-1,000 miles they will be quiet and harden up for on road driving (or you should be used to them by then). They have done great on snow and ice and dry and rain. I have ran them through all the possible road conditions and not been disappointed. You just have to know what you can handle, how it handles and then you will be set for the life of the tires. The ride for me atleast got a little stiffer switching to a LT sidewall rather than the passenger tire version, but I also replaced the factory shocks at the same time that had 135k miles on them with some stiffer off road edlebrock shocks. It still rides great on the highway, just around town till its warmed up (and when its like 0 degrees out all the time) it seems rough but its a truck so deal with it. Alright I am ending my rant, but hopefully this helps you with your descision.

31" tires w/ a 2" suspension lift should be fine if you have stockwheels/backspacing. You still may have some minor trimming with wheel at full turn lock. Very, very minor trimming if that though. BFG AT's the way to go.

While driving on road your suspension travels less then offroad. If they work off-road, they will work on road with no problems. On-road you can get some 31" to work without any lift, if you don't mind a little rubbage on the inner fender nuts.
