I am having trouble finding a spare so I am interested in what everyone has to say as well.  I was using the stock spare for my niece's tetherball but a 31 on it should make it more stable and I can borrow it for wheeling

The minimum recommended rim width for a 31x10.5 is 7"

I'm sure the photo is just a file photo
But everything else seems fine.
I run this combo on my 4dr
31"s on 15x8
I would believe atlest a 5"inch lift for 31's or 3"inch with fender trimming.

yea right now i have a 1.5" coil spacer lift and i measured my frame height when it was stock then after i put the coil spacers on and it was a 2.5" lift and on monday im ordering a 3" body lift so i think that should be enough to run 31"s but i could be wrong

yeah, that 31" setup should work well. im running my 31's on 15x8's, 3.25" backspacing, and 1" wheel spacers, with just minimal fender trimming, and its great. it still has plenty of clearance for articulation
