if youre going to do it without lift, you need to trim your fenders. if you want to do it without trimming your fenders, you need lift. im running 3" lift with 31s and trimmed fenders. i ran them with no problems before i trimmed the fenders, but they would not have fit with no lift. if you dont want to lift it or cut your fenders i know some guys run 30s like that...

Sounds about 100% correct to me. I'm sure if you trimmed a little and didn't offroad much you'd fit 31's.

my truck no lift, no fender trimming. just watch how much weight you have in the back (i had 5 people riding in the truck and it rubs). and i left my swaybars connected and stayed away from stuff that twisted the truck up too bad and i got away with it fine for 3-4 months, but i have a lift going on the truck now, so...
