Biggest tire for rally rim and stock height 2wd????

I have an 87 that currently has 31x10.5 tires. Doesn't rub at all. Just curious if anybody was able to go larger without any rubbing issues? Currently have stock rally wheels. I would like to go with 32x11.5 but worried they may rub a good bit.

My truck is a 4wd and it has 32x11.50 and that's really the biggest I would go without lifting it. But my truck is a 4wd, I didn't think 31x10.50 would really fit on 2wd without rubbing issues.

I was surprised too actually. They don't rub at all and actually seem to have a good bit of extra clearance. Wish there was a way to test fit tires. Lol.

Yeah that would be useful item for tire shops to have is a mockup type tire and rim setup for I guess "display" purposes only.
