dumb question,just gotta make sure though

I'm picking up a set of FX4 15" Alcoas and I've got a good deal on a set of 31x10.5x15 A/T tires that I can pick up immediately before the rims are shipped to me.

Just want to make sure that these tires are going to fit the rims and won't be too wide? What's a stock FX4 run? My truck runs 255/70/16's right now,so the 31x10.5 are going to be the same overall diamater as my current tires,but I'm just concerned about the width. Also,once mounted if they are going to fit,are they going to stick out past the fenders at all?

Thanks,and sorry for the stupid questions. Gotta be sure before spending hundreds of dollars.

wow,don't i feel stupid now. haha.

Thanks for the quick replies guys!

I can't pass up a deal for a set of barely used tires for $300 when the ones I really wanted were going to run me $1200,which is way out of my budget at the moment,and the stock Wranger RT/S's are the WORST tires I have ever driven in the snow with since a set of low pro sport tires on my old RX7.
