Go with 31's with that 2" lift. If im not mistaken 30's are just a hair bit bigger than stock. You will need 31's to fill it up and make it look good.
 






Oh, and either way you wont need different gears to run either tire. If you have 3:27's right now it will still work but anything lower would be better.
 






redrig is right.
i have 3.27's in my rig. i ride 31x10.50's. i have no problems getting up and going when i need to.

dont go putting 30's under a lift. its a waste of money. get 31's or 32's
 






ive heard u need a lift if u put wider rims on like 15x8's
 












Im running 30s on 15x7s right now on my 94XLT with 3.27's autotranny with no problems.
