sure the 31x11.5 's will fit......but don't know about the Chevy rims..........depending on the rim condition, $ 400 isn't bad.........depends on the tire condition as well.
If your going to spend that much , , you should go to your local 4 wheel parts store and buy some Black rockcrawlers for $ 40 a piece......which of course would be new......and new Procomp 31's for around $ 100 a piece.........it's only a hundred more and you get NEW rims, and NEW tires and no guess work .....

hey, if the rims are for a chevy 6-lug, the pattern is the same as the yota's, so they should fit...

You also need to consider back spacing of the rim......they may bolt up , but have the wrong back spacing..........I've heard of people buying a set up similar to what you want to do.......bolting them up and shredding their tires on fron't end parts as well as Screwing up the front end parts, as well.......so again, make sure the back spacing is correct........call your local tire store to find out, because I forgot what it is....good luck !!!

If the rims are aftermarket they will fit. But factory chevy rims wont fit the center hole is a bit to small. Nothin a rasp on a die grinder wont fix. check the tires over real good make sure their arnt any plugs in them.

So i need to know the back spacing before i can tell if they are going to rub or not? Also if im running 28.8 inch tires right now and im throwing on 31's it will be 2.2 inches higher right? Will i notice a big power decrease?

if im running 28.8 inch tires right now and im throwing on 31's it will be 2.2 inches higher right? if the 31's are a true 31 inches tall when mounted, inflated, and such, it will make your truck sit 1.1 inches higher. that's cause the diameter increases by 2.2", but the radius only increases by 1.1". basicially, it adds another 1.1" all the way around the tire, which only puts your truck up about an inch. hope that makes sense...
