3.5" XJ Lift

I recently bought a RE6030 - XJ 3.5" SUPER-FLEX W/REAR SPR for my 00 Cherokee. The specs suggest that 31x10.5x15 are the max tire sizes. I would like to try and get 32x11.5x15's under it. Does anyone see any problems with this? Rubbing?

Thanks
Darren

They will fit but offroad would rub if you don't trim. If it was me I'd definitely bump stop and also trim a little.
