NO!!!! thats what i did and i definately regret it. you will have to take off the fenders and when i did the tire didnt have enough atriculation and hit the metal chipping it causing rust. go 4.5. 3' will work for 31s

You mean you took off the flares. A lot of us cut the fenders to make room.
...And the tire had too much articulation because you didn't use bumpstops.
