Is it 4wd? If so they should not rub at all I've heard of people running 31s on stock 4wd with minimal to no rubbing

I have a '96, 2wd, stock and I put 265 under it and I get some rub, but not bad. I will go with a slightly smaller tire next time.

Probably depends on whether your front springs are good or worn out and sagging.
A new set of front coils are pretty cheap though, so maybe something to consider.
