umm... 2wd correct? coilsprung suspension, not Tbars. you can fit a 30x9.50 or equivalant, a 31 or its equivalant would rub valence and at full turn.

A 245/75/16 is about a 31 (30.5in) so do you rub with those?

pat, once and for all, i have a 2wd Edge at stock height, which is basically 4x4 height, and i'm running the BFG 31's. there is absolutely no rubbing so you will be fine with your 4wd

explain why you dont..honistly i want to hear the answer there is no good reason not too but if you have one lets hear it...

15x8 wheels or STOCK wheels with like 1-3 cranks if that you can fit 32x11.5x15 stock with no problems...

31x10.5x15 are pansy tires you could have completely saged out bars and it wouldnt rub...
