Default 30x9.50s on stock xj

I just bought a set of 30x9.50s for my cherokee I have no lift yet and was wondering if it would rub. And if it does I was planing on putting my brothers wj coils on the front and block the back for now

What year? They should be ok on a 96 or older but may rub on a 97 or newer.

I'd use 2" coil spacers... they're literally the exact same thing as those 2" "Budget Boost" lift kits for much cheaper... those would give you enough clearance in order to install up to 32" tires. That's what I'm going to do on my '02 WJ Grand Cherokee, install 31"'s on it. (:

I thought about the budget boost but didn't want to turn around and pay for another lift a couple months later, I also was thinking about getting a budget boost from fat bobs garage but instead of the coil spacers it comes with coil springs

I'm buying coils from rustys and my shocks, stabilizer and track bar is coming from IRO. Like I said before i will eventually upgrade to full spring pack in the rear when I have the money but for now I'm going to use an aal. My leafs are pretty much brand new.
