So basically, I got my 98 Jeep Cherokee 3 months ago. It already has a Skyjacker 3" lift kit on it. And 29x10.5x15 Super swampers. On most likely a 15x8 rim. I want to run a larger tire but not trim what so ever. And no rubbing even when hitting some bumps etc. I would like to keep the lift that's on it.
I was possibly thinking 30x9.5x15 on my 15x8 rim. But I like how the super swmapers sit outside the fenders alittle. Where the whole time is not mostly inside the fender. I don't want anything to deal with spacers, and would like to keep the same size lift, no trimming, and run a bigger tire. Any pictures of y'all's rigs?
I ike the way it sits. Would just prefer A/T tires to help with gas a little. Just would like the fender to be filled in a little more just not the tires sucked in.
Also any suggestions on improving Mpg. I get 9.8mpg. I do need to buy a air filter which is a problem with it as well. Super dirty. t
Thanks guys
Or would it just be best to stick with the same size
just an fyi, 30s measure out to like 29.7 inches. Not sure what your current tires measure to, but it likely not much less. Alot of people run 31s on a 3 inch lift.
31X10.50x15 on a 15x8 with 3.75 backspacing and 3" lift. I only had some slight rubbing issues when turning, I fixed it with some minor trimming. This is an old pic, I have the fenders cut out now and I am eventually going to try to squeeze some 285/75/16s under it.
