I considered, but do not want to cut and fold and do not want to affect gas mileage anymore than I may by going 30X9.5

Stock was 225 on it, I went 235 cause I got a deal on wrangers for 68 a piece new, and now can afford to go 30X9.5 like I wanted to back then. JUst not sure if the metric version was a better way to go.

You will want the 31s, I put on the 30s and regret not just going bigger.

How bad will it rub? Is there a particular 31 that is smaller than others? How off will the speedo be? I post a pic here with 235 and the space.

I have 30x9.50s on my 97 with no lift so 31s should fit with plenty of room with your lift

Here is mine with 2" bb (obviously sagging rear) with 30x9.5 r15
I got a good deal on them and I think it looks good and fills out nice but if I found a good deal on some 31x10.5 r15 I would probably get them.
