31X10.5X15 on a 15X8 wheel? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Okay, there seems to be a bit of conflicting information regarding the 31X10.5X15 combo on 15X8 wheels. Some folks say, "Go ahead! No problems at all!" Others say, "Hmmm... you can do it, but I don't think it's a good idea!" Still others say, "Nope! It doesn't work!"

So what's the verdict, guys? Can I shoe a 15X8 wheel with 31X10.5X15 tires? I want a fairly aggressive tire that really fills the wheel well and I don't want a goofy 20-inch, $1,000 billet wheel in there. It's a truck, dammit!

PS: No offense to those that run giant wheels and rubber band tires. You do your thing and I'll do mine!
