Default will I have clearance?

My 31 10.50 15 tires are due for replacing and I found a good deal on a set of b f g mud terrains but they are 32 11.50 will I have enough room? or should I stick with the 31's. Also are the 31's original tire size ? online tire dealers say not...
thanks

Yes the 31"s are most likely the factory size, some here and there ran the smaller combo. I'd like to say 100% that the 32" and 11.5 width would hit the fender. I think if you did a torsion shackle lift you should clear the fender (correct me if im wrong guys). Torsion shackle would be purchasing belltech 6400 shackles ($30-$40) for the rear and cranking the torsion bars 8 full turns. Cheap alternative for using larger tires ..

You will most likely hit the front bumper when turning. I eyeballed this when I was in the market for new tires and stock 31's just barely fit.

my stock replacement 31's hit the bumper and inner fender when I replaced them.. Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armours.. guess my Tbars have sagged a lil after almost 180,000 miles
