Blind Stealing

Many times in a tournament I will find the stacks directly to my left as bad targets to blind steal from. Much of the advice for MTTs always says to observe your opponents and steal from the tight players.

How do you take advantage of these players when they have the blinds but you are in EP or MP? I feel raising with any two here, like I might in LP and a tight player in the blind, is too risky with so many people yet to act.

Should I be opening up my game and raising with hands I might normally pass on just because I know the blinds to be tight?

Almost everytime I enter a pot it's with a raise, but I have seen some players have success limping into the blinds when tight players are in them and then taking the pot on the flop with a small bet. This puts less of your stack at risk and keeps the pot small, but also may bring LP players into the pot that might have folded if you raised.

Any advice on the trade offs between stealing when in position as compared to stealing from out of position but the players in the blinds are tight would be appreciated.
