Tires

I have a 2" lift and am currently running p235/75/r15's. Am thinking about stepping up to 31/10.50/15's. Stock gearing, currently getting about 20-25 mpg highway. Do any of you run 31's with a 2" lift? Any problems? Thanks guys!

Yea I have soft 8 wheels so thy have a good emount of backpacking. Won't rub control arms. And almost all my driving is highway. Well besides when I'm in the dirt. Just a question. I need some new meats and was just curious. Thanks for your input man!
