Spacer and tire combo

I want to run 31X10.5R15 BF Goodrich A/T on my stock ZR5 wheels. Do I need a spacer on the front, if so what would be the best size? Right now I have a 1.75" spacer on the rear. I was thinking about some three inch spacrs for the rear and moving the 1.75 ones to the front. Any suggestions? Thanks.
