Hey guys, first time user here so i apologize in advance if this thread is in the wrong place, but anyway here goes..
I have a 98 xj 4 door right now with 4 inch springs in the front and 3.5 rubicon express rear leafs about to go into the back, and im currently on 235/75r15's, and they are waaay too small. I've looked at a BUNCH of threads and couldn't find a strait answer to what size tire i can put on there without having to cut and fold or do any heavy modification. I took off my fender flares because i assumed that might add a little clearance, so what size tire can i safely fit on a 15x7 rim with a 4 inch lift and no modding? also i do know that i will be limited as far as tire width goes to like 10.5 bcause of my wheels. thanks in advance!

 

You should scroll through this thread:

Usually 31-32" is what most people do; there's really no way to tell EXACTLY what will work for you. With those sizes you're probably not looking at trimming, or at least maybe minor trimming

 

when you say trimming what exactly are you saying i need to trim?

 

trimming your fenders.

 

I've got a 98 and I'm running 3" lift and 255/75/17, roughly a 32 with no trimming. when its flexed all the way I can tuck the tire in my fender, but I can't turn, so I'll have to trim mine.

 

to be honest i dont really go wheeling that often at all because my rig is only a 2wd but i just want it to look good with some beefier tires, so that being said, i wont be flexing at all probably so do u think i will be okay as just a dd being able to turn and not rub on fenders and such without trimming? I live in socal so theres not much nearby to go thrash around at haha

 

on 4 inch id go 32 10.50. the only thing you'll rub on is your lca's at full turn. are you going to be running a stock wheel or something with more back spacing?

 

I'm running d-hole steelies, 15x7 with 3.75" BS, but if thats not enough, would wheel spacers solve that?
