Icon4 I know this GeTs Old but??

I got a ask i know that the manufactures say that the biggest tire size that i can fit is a 31'' tire without rubbing. I was wondering how much i can push this with a stock setup? I found a deal on a set of tires and rims for 500$ and they are 32x11.50 r 15's How much work would it take to make it work? and Can I get away without torsion bar cranking? Input is Appreciated.

My rig is a 2002 xlt 4x4

Yeah they will fit easily. You could even fit 33x10.50 with very very minor rubbing. Usually only happens at full crank going over a speed bump or four wheeling.
