Tire size question for stock KJ rims

kidkodiak · 06-26-2009, 05:46 PM

I'm used to my XJ, so Im not sure how the size difference works.

Would a 265/75R16 tire fit on a stock 16" Liberty rim? Is that too big/not big enough?

We're assuming 2-3" of lift on the kJ too, btw. Not sure, I thought someone said that these were equivalent to 30x9.5's, in which case I know they'd fit, but I'm looking for the equivalent to 31x10.5 tires.

Any help is appreciated

No one, eh? Sure would love the answer to this from any KJ owners

Truth be told, I'm trying to figure out the largest tire I can fit on a stock XJ for my girlfriend... we'll worry about the lift stuff later
