3rd gen tire fitting

ive done some searching but havent come up with anything involving putting a 31 x 11.5 swamper LTB on a 3rd gen sr5 4runner. would this tire size fit on a non lifted runner? im planning on running some 16x8 rims with 4" b/s. should i get rubbing issues or anything? what if i go with a 16x10? thanks a lot guys

bump?
im guessing that these tires will fit because i currently have 275/70/16s on my 4runner which are approx 10.8ish by 31. im thinking that that half inch extra wouldnt make a difference, and with .5" more backspace on the wheel wouldnt give me problems with the upper a arm. BUT how do u guys think a 16x10 would work out w/out any lift? how much of a difference in width would that make? thanks

They probably should fit. Interco tires tend to run on the narrow side (that is narrower than labelled but also taller). Keep the wheels as narrow as possible to minimize tire rubbing up front. Measure your current backspace and tire width and see how the new wheels/tires would fit:
