Hey I'm trying to find a tire size around 31 inches tall but wider then 10.50 inches wide. Don't want to go much bigger then 31 cause I'm riding on stock height. I have 31/10.50 15 now

Don't know of anything wider in a 31, but BFG makes a 32x11.5r15

Well I was thinking about going to metric to get the wider tire.

I think Super Swamper is the only manufacturer of the "wide" tires. It appears they offer a 31x11.5r15

As you probably already know, a 31x11.5x15 tire in p-metric sizing would be about 285/70/15. A 285/75/15 would put you closer to the 32x11.5x15 mentioned above. Those metric sizes may exist for a 15inch rim, but they are certainly not common and you may not have much option for tread pattern etc. Obviously if you want to spend the money for larger rim diameter then you may be able to get what you are looking for overall tire size (31x11.5).

This is a great tool in trying to match up tires sizes. Gives actual size, % difference between 2 different tires, rotations per mile, etc.

You mentioned stock highth. The wider you get the harder it is to turns. Thus a lot harder on sespention parts.
For colorado Wheelin you want to go taller and narrow to get better sidewall flex.
Wider is for mud and sand.
