I'm looking for a set of 31 inch tires. I have 15 inch rims. I'm guessing 10.5 for the width? My current tires are 235/75R15's

Good to know
Ive ran tires 12.5" but at full turn lock to lock it rubbed the draglink boot but I just didnt turn it all the way. The info on my k10 states that stock height 11.5"width is max and vehicle needs a 2"lift to properly run 12.5" width tires.

I wonder how much the Gabriel load carrier coil over shocks on the front would help with this issue? It raised mine 1-2" up front.

265/75/r15 is the metric equivalent, I run 31/10.50/r15's on my 79.

My 12.5's didnt rub much,enought to tear the draglink end boot tho.Depending on how offroad radical terrain you do if those coilovers do a little lift you could run them.I would run 12.5's on my truck again if I got a good enough deal on them.I could have adjusted the wheel lock stops but I never bothered.
