31 10.5 15 question

Ok, so I currently am running 235 75R15s on my '69 lwb, and I'm thinking of upgrading to 31x10.5x15 tires. Can I put them on my 15x8 wheel, or do I have to get something wider to handle that tire?

You will be fine on an 8" wheel.

Here is my truck with 31x10.5x15s on 8 inch rims. They actually measure 32 dia and they don't rub even on turns.
