I found 4 30x9.5 BFG A/Ts on 15x8 aluminum wrangler wheels on craigslist for $220. Will these fit my jeep without any lift? I measured and I don't have any sag from the stock measurements. Also is $220 a good deal for these tires, he says they still have the rubber nubs on them?

Get the rusty's offroad 2in budget boost, i have that on my cherokee and 30s fit fine with no rubbing and you can reuse your shocks. You could also get a set of v8 ZJ coils for about 2inches of lift, there cheap and everywhere thanks to cash for clunkers.

Yeah 30's will fit with no lift. I have 16" rims, 235/75/16's on them (tire is right at 29.5, so with the extra 1" on my rims...bout the same).

I get no rub on the street, even at full turn. If I punish it offroad it will rub a little when flexed out.

Running 30s on stock is OK but better if you could put 2in of lifts on it so you can go off-road with no worries...
