I'm sure he is rubbing all the time. My truck rubbed with 31s before I cranked my t-bars.

if you get a 31x10.50 a/t the only rubbing you will have is when you flex and you will rub on that stupid little notch in the inner fender if you know what i am talking about

Ah nevermind. I forgot the guy on TRS does have a small lift.

Get some 31s, you will be fine.

Stock rims? It makes a difference.

I've seen 31x10.5 on a coil sprung truck with the stock 15x7" rims. If they did rub, I bet it would have been very little.
