You'll likely have issues with the fronts scrubbing on the chassis lock to lock, 31's scrub so 265/75's (32's) will... This can be overcome to a point by screwing out the steering stops but that model isn't famous for it's tight turning circle before you start playing with such things...

I am running 265/75/16 bighorms on the factory alloys on my GLX-R and I have no issues with clearance.

Cheers

MK or ML...??? 31's on the MK GLS alloys hit the chassis at the front on my MK, 32's fit fine on my ML...

265/75/16's fit no problem, no scrubbing, as long as your torsion bars haven't sagged too much

285/75/16's fit, no scrubbing with a little bit of torsion bar wind up

fitted 31x 10.5 on my MK no worries, had gotten new rims to suit the tyres size. If it scrubs... usually first thing would be the offset of the rims? and also if you had adjusted your wheel turning stopper, mayb it'll scrub.

just my 2 cents
