If you don't wheel it alot, 31's shouldn't rub provided you get new wheels for the 12.5 wide tires, you can run up to 10.5 wide without major rubbing. You could go with 30's too, its really a matter of taste and what you are doing with it.
Really the only way at that point that you are going to get 3 inches in the front though is to either buy new spacers or 3 inch coils, you never stack spacers. I'd go with new coils, if you buy just coils from like rough country or whatever they are like 110 plus shipping.
