going to try and fit 31s stock

[RGMs03]

i have an 03 xlt 2wd all stock accept intake and exhaust. my tires are pretty bald and i'm pretty broke, so after searching the almighty craigslist i found a guy with some 31x10.5x15 super swampers asking 100 bucks for all four in good condition. might as well give it a try right?
i've heard you can fit this size tire on a stock rim, i have also hear you can fit them with out a lift, with slight rubbing at full lock? any input? by the way the truck has 3.73s in it.

so i picked up the tires last night, they are actually Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radials, this morning i went down to one of the tire shops and had them put on. the truck looks 10x better, rides better and they actually dont rub at all.

I love the look of Baja Claws. Thats a steal for $100.

yeah they definately look great, i dont know if ill be able to replace them with another set once they are worn out at 170 a tire. but by that time hopefully i'l have another job.
now that i've put the tires on the truck pulls slightly to the right but only after 35-40 mph, is this the alignment or could it be un even wear on the tires? i notice 2 of the tires is worn un evenly could that be the problem

 

[Toms01PSD]

It could be that and alignment. I re-aligned my truck after I put 31's on it.

i' not possitive on how to post a pic her but here's my attempt.

 

[daniel3507]

that looks really good. fills it out nicely

 

[mentalbreakdown00]

swap the front tires it's not alignment...if it pulls the other way rotate them fron to back and pull will be gone

 

[RGMs03]

thanks daniel3507, i think so too. definately a big differrence from stock as far as looks as well as the ride difference.

i'l try that tire swap in the front as soon as i get the chance then go from there. thanks for the advice mentalbreakdown00.

i cant wait to get a lift on this, i really want to go with a camburg long travel but unfortunatley lost my job a few months back and havent had any luck finding another one. on top of that ive got a few tickets to pay and am even trying to sell my dirtbike to pay them. Sooo i am going to try to find a used lift or something for now. maby just some lift spindles and blocks or something like the fabtec sping and upper arm kit would be even better if i could get a good deal on them.
