It fits just fine. Only problem is if I crank the wheel hard to the right
(which I try not to do anyway) and then it rubs on the wheel well a little
bit. I've got to cut a smidge off. I think when I give it the 2" lift it
will probably take care of that problem anyway. And you're right about them
being the biggest for the 4x4. I saw a '96 with a set of 31/1050/15 BFG
AT's and there was considerable wear on the inside wheel wells from rubbing.

Welcome to the list Erin.
Question: How did you get tires that size on a 4x2? I was under the
impression 30x9.50 was the largest we could can get for our '95 4x4.
