haha... 44's would be nice, but for a serious answer i would go with 29 or so (maybe 30...). i used to run 30X9.50 on my stock cherokee... and as far as i know the wheel well clearance and all is about the same.

I'd say 28" or even 29" if you don't mind a bit of rubbing. 235/75R15.

State lift laws... accurate?

if it helps any, i tried a set of 30x9.5's on my GC yesterday and they fit fine.. no rubbing.. im debating 31x10.5's on offset rims.. they should fit...

31 x 10.5 will most surely NOT fit...we barely stuffed the 30 x 9.5 under Graewulfs stock GC.

Rob :P :)

i dunno about that.. might be a close fit,, didnt rub with the 30's.. offset rims would be a must for that if it will work....

YJ Spice Soft Top For Sale. Like New.

Graewulf, just talked to my buddy, and I didn't realize it but he DID have offset rims. So your theory is correct.

BUT he did say he had a little rubbing while backing out of a parking space today. First time it happened, so maybe I jumped the gun a little. But I'd say you could get away with the mild rubbing, he's happy with em.

Every vehicle a little different, you never know.

I was suggesting the size not fitting on a stock suspension and factory rims.


Rob :P :)

I think the Back Spacing was 4.75 but I could be wrong.
