Tire Size
We have a 98 Cherokee Sport, all stock with the 15x7 rims. Can I install 235/75/15 tires without a problem or do I need to stay with the 225/75/15 stock size....

you should be fine tire wise, but just make sure a larger tire wont rub

I have P235/75-R15 tires on my 2000 with stock rims.
No problems with rubbing the wheel well. |
I have a 98 Classic, stock wheels and 235/75/15's. No rubbing at all.

Actually (mathematically), 235/75/15 is 28.9" tall and 225/75/15 is 28.3" tall for a difference of .60", not .06". 235 is .39" wider than 225.

I have 31x10.5s on my stock wheels, but I didn't do an adj track bar after my lift and at full right turns I rub the LCA. I need to get some rims with 3.5-4" BS i believe but it's nothing I can't live with for now. The previous owner put these tires on and I did the lift. When I first got the car they rubbed bad! But I had drastically sagging suspension. I thought the 31s looked too big stock, now they look too small.
I picked up another matching steelie at the JY to use for my full size spare, and it had a 235 on it... not too different from the 31", may be just right. My "31s" measure 29.5" with weight on them and they're a bit worn. |
