probably ordering goodyear duratracs tomorow ive searched and searched havent found what im looking for opionions of those running 31's on stock trucks do they rub bad on stock rims? handle much different? and what about millage? i have 3.55s under it right now adding 31s will make it 3.31s will i notice that big of a difference

 

I have the 265's stock on my Bronco and they are give/take the same size as a 31x10.50. No rubbing or problems at all. Your truck, being a 2wd might be a bit closer to rubbing, but should still be fine unless your springs are worn up front.

 

It's the 4x4 sclb in my signature some people seem to say 31s rub others say no

 

They won't rub... My Bronco came with 31" stock, and they were way far from rubbing, i'm actually thinking in going 32" with the next set of tires.

 

The 31X10.50 tires on mine don't come close to rubbing anything.

 

Nice bring on the duratracs

 

I used to own a '89 Bronco, with 32x12.5x15r on them. No rubbing at all. Only rubbing I ever got, was with my 33" Super swampers that I put on it, and even then was only on the radius arms. BUT I did have bigger wheels on it, because with stock wheels, they will rub. I know this because my other bronco had 32" with stock wheels, and they rub fairly hard on the radius arms on the '89.

 

I also have 31 x 10.5 on my 94 4x4 and they have never touched.

 

I have a '96 4x4 with the moog 844 's up front.

I bought Falken Wildpeak AT's about a month ago and love them. You might check them out.

 

95 f150 4x4 ex cab short box, 31x10.5" tires, stock rims, NO rubbing

 

had an '89 F150 with 31x10.50r15 avon mud terrains. I had a VERY minor rubbing issue with mine on the pass front because my front bumper was tweeked and sat farther back on that side. probably wouldn't have if the bumper had been straight. I didn't notice any loss of performance going from the 235/75r15 it had on it. my truck had a 302/aod and 3.55:1 LS.

 

Beautiful Truck! Love the short wheelbase rigs! Tell us about it!

 

31" Hercules. no lift. no rub. no problems (except these things howl down the highway).

 

To all you people w/ 87-91 year trucks:

The front ends are different. That year range has a more open wheel well, and will allow for a 33x12.5 on stock rims w/ no rubbing. The truck in question is a 96, different bumper and different wheel openings. Your trucks do not apply to this situation.

 

huh... i knew they had different front ends, wasn't aware of more open wheel well though... well, learn something new everyday!
