Default wanting bigger tires on my dakota

I have a 2000 dakota 4x4 quad cab. It has the factory size 235 75 15. Would i be able to go to 31 10.5 15 without any issues? Also would the factory wheels be ok with the extra width. Thank you all.

my 2001 came with 265/70/16s from the factory, if I remember right, they measured exactly 31"

You can easily fit those 31x10.5R15 without any rubbing.

I've had 31 10.5 before, they worked good. only rubbing was when the tires were brand new and making a hard turn. and then they were barely rubbing the inner finder.

My 98 came factory with 31x10.50's.. You can fit 32x11.50's with a torsion bar crank. Thats what I was running before I got rid of the truck.
