They will fit easily-some guys are running 33's. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> There is a write-up on here somewhere regarding fitment.

Can fit 32's w/ only the most minor (1/16-1/8") trimming of your front bumper's rubber end caps. The tires will do it for you if you let them.
Otherwise you may also need a wider rim if the 32's are too wide.
That said, 31's will definitely fit. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Easily. As mentioned, you can fit 33x12.5s with simple, minor modification. The key is getting the right rims.
I have a 2" body-lift and a 2" suspension lift and am only running 33x12.5s (waiting for them to wear out). If I'd wanted, I could fit 39s with some rubbage (I've scoped it out). My next set of tars will be 35s. 37s would be more than I care with which to task the axles.

There was a long thread awhile ago with pics of different rim and tire sizes, anyone know where it went?
Searched and couldn't find it.

With some liberal trimming of the front plastic bumper caps and some hammering inside the fenders you can fit 33x12.5 TSLs (that measure out to 33.7"). So technically in theory you can run 34x10.5 LTBs that measure out to only 33.6". So yes you can run 31x10.5 with no problems, my own set of 31x10.5s have never rubbed even when flexing/stuffing the tires.

As others mentioned they fit just fine. One other thing to think about is rim width. The stock rims are a bit narrow for 10.5"s and you will get a bit of a bulge on your tread.
I have run them that way but later on opted for a set of wider rims.
Other things to consider is what you have for a drive train. A stock 2.6 with an auto is going to lose a fair amount of pep and fuel economy pulling those taller tires. The stick is not as bad and the V6 should be just fine.

It depends on what kind of rims your putting them on also. I moved from 235/75 on the steel rims to 31x10.5 on the LS Alloys and if anything saw an improvement. I can't speak for the auto, but with the stick and 31s on alloys you won't see any drastic change. On the other hand steel rims are heavier, and you might get some kind of slight loss then.
