Very nice deal. To buy those wheels alone, new, would have been $200+shipping, and the center caps would have been another $40+shipping, and that doesn't include the price for the tires.

I know for a fact its not an upcountry. I had 235s on it for the last year without any issue.

Not all 31s are created equal. Some barely measure 30 new and used might be closer to 29" same as a 235/75/15 which is what I ran till I lifted mine.

31x10.50's on a stock rig isn't unheard of. When I bought my 95 the dealer had 31x10.50's on it. Never rubbed. Well only when I had ppl in the back and I hit a good bump. But other than that no issues.
