30x9.50 on my '98 rubbed at the bottom of the front flares when turning sharp, more so with passenger(s) in the truck. Also let a dip catch me by surprise and popped one of my rear flares right off.
Prior to the 30's it had 255/70's on it. The fronts would rub lightly on the LCA's when turning sharp.

I have no idea. My 01 Sport came with a donut, which is no good for 4x4 even with the stock 225's... I picked up a spare off a Wrangler, 235, and it fits in donut's spot. Still no good for 4x4 with my 31's, but at least it's a little more functional on the highway if needed.

Here is mine riding on 235/75R15 Firestone Destination M/Ts - no rubbing at full lock or off-road
