31x16x20 will fit for sure. I am trying now to figure out if 31x18x20 will fit. I believe they will, but finding the right wheel combo may be tough.

Both of these would require a small tub. But fender wells only, you won't have to touch the frame for sure with the 16" and you shouldn't have to with the 18"

Looks amazing - what year is your truck and what are the specs/model name of your rims please?

I got a 68 SWB SS C10 and am looking for a complete wheel set much along the lines of what you got there, am thinking 15x10 with MTT-6643 30x12R15 rear and 15x8 with MTT-6640 28x10R15 front.

235/75R15 all around, rear rally rims have an inch more offset than the front
not sure why it posts upside down, I even went back and inverted the file in my computer and re-attached it and it still shows up wrong....
