I've got over 20 Chevy trucks, Suburbans, and full size Blazers sitting up in my fields. Several of the 1/2 ton models have - 31 x 10.50 X 15" oversize tires on standard steel rims and fit fine. Also got an 91 diesel Chevy Blazer with 32 X 11.50 X 15" with aftermarket alloy rims. They fit just fine with no lifts or modifications. My 1982 Chevy 1/2 ton 4WD diesel plow-truck had 33 X 12.50s X 15s on it when I got it. It might of made a good beach-buggy on soft sand - but was useless on snow that way. I put some 225 X 15" on it for plowing.

Use the stock tire size - or better yet - one size smaller/thinner and you'll get better traction in snow and ice.
