I'm new to the forums, I have a stock 01 jeep cherokee sport 4.0L 2wd at the moment. I'm looking into putting 31x10.50 BFG All Terrains on it, I'm not sure if it would rub or not with the stock suspension. I'm balling on a HS budget, so it's going to take a while.

I found this picture online, and this is an idea on how I would want it to look one day.

Going to need to cut up some fenders and get some wheel spacers if those 31's are going on stock rims (gonna rub the lca at full lock pretty bad).

What size tire would you recommend putting on the stock rims so it wouldn't rub?

I'm not advising against the 31's (I'd do the same) just get some spacers. Trying to remember what I paid for my old ones. Got them on amazon, I think it was $60 (1.25" spacers) a set. Could also get some steelies off CL for a good price.

Alright thanks for some input, I might just go with that. I really didn't want to go with spacers but 1.25" it's too bad. I've been looking at steel wheels on 4wheelparts, do you think that be a good site to get some brand new?

These are the cheapest steelies I have found. Plus free shipping

I'm bookmarking that! You can't beat that, plus free shipping, that's great! I just want to avoid doing anything with the suspension. I like the way it sits now stock.
