Sounds like you live in an area of the country that doesn't allow

Mike, both my YJs have 30x9.50s on 'em with no lift. I actually think
that unless you did a lot of off roading that required articulation(as
opposed to trail riding in the woods like I do)you could probably run
a 31x10.50 on the stock aluminum rims with only modification of the
steering stops.
I know for a fact you can run 31x10.50's on aftermarket rims with no
lift, one of my son's has his YJ set up like that.

It depends on the YJ and the trails I guess.
I have seen some that could stuff 10.5's under there with minimal
rubbing and others that would peel rubber off the tire with 4 people
inside.
Rims could be a factor there likely as you mention.
