Default 2in lift and 31s

Im new to the jeep world. I just got a great deal on some 31x10.5x15 bfgoodrich a/t for $150 from my uncle. I have a 1997 cherokee 4x4 se. Its my dd and i drive 100 miles round trip to work. I sometimes go mudding but not much. I dont want to go any higher then 2 in. I know that you can fit 30s stock. So my question is Im looking at the RE 2in budget boost add a leaf it says max tire size is 30's but I want to know if I can fit the 31's with it? And if anyone has some pics of a 2in left with 31's please post it. Any help is thanksful.

Look in the XJ lift and tire set-up thread that should give you a good idea.

I think it will work on your stock rims, but it may rub a little. If you don't flex too hard. Should be ok. You can also trim the fenders a wee bit, and relocate them .5-1" higher.
