hey thanks a lot that really helped out a lot....the only other question i have is it says the 30's will fit but most people say 30x10.5 will fit fine i was wondering if anyone new if it would matter if they were 30x11.50...and they are thornbirds but if 31's fit stock the 30's with a little extra tread shouldnt matter

Would not know for sure.I guess if you have to do some trimming it would not matter. That site also has alot of other technical things like tire size gear ratio and what not.I think blazee was the one who hooked me up with it first not positive

I can tell you right now that 31X10.5X15's will not fit without rubbing

yes they will...my best friend has a 98 blazer with 31x10.5.15`s on his stock blazer with not rubbing at all

I have a 98, I had 31's put on and the front tires rubbed. I was in the hop, sat down, turned the wheel myself and got out and saw where it was hitting. So I went with the 30's. If I cranked on the torsion bars they would fit but I did not want to play around.

I am "assuming" they will fit if I raise the front from stock height by cranking on the torsion bars which I don't want to do. The ride will suffer, you need an alignment after. Just not worth it to me.
