I'm not quite sure how low I haven't checked sense I got them if I remember correctly midas told me there around 35to40psi. I do have rub. It rubs on the lower control arms at full turn and on the fenders. The website recommends 15x8 rim with 4.5 for backspacing
O I see...is it alot of tire rub...should I buy new rims????well the stock rims have a 4.5 back spacing correct??? What if u put a 1 inch or so spacer that should stop the rub

a lot of auto places say spacers are a bad thing for some reason, i dont know why, i on the other hand recommend rims sense the stock rims dont have the correct back spacing. On my 89 laredo i never had any rub accept for on the lower control arm at full turn the tires never hit my fenders, wish i could say the same for my 96. then again the tires only rub on a small lip that i could just cut right off then it would only rub on the LCA. Im getting a set of 15x8's with the 4.5 back spacing due to the LCA. andd plus sense its a wider rim i can run the correct psi and the side wall of the tires wont bow out and it would give it a more straighter look to it along with pushing the tire out more away from the jeep eliminating the whole top heavy look. I looked at your fenders and they look like my 89's so i dont think youll have to worry about it rubbing the fenders

Mine rub because there 11.5 wide. It usually depends on the width of the tire. And the rim its on. He probably has no rubbing because of the rims he has

want kind of tire are you looking at? because the tread could effect it but you can run my size tire on the stock rims, but at FULL turn they might rub up against the LCA but unless your in a very tight corner i dont think you would have to worry about it, but if your asking if it rubs during daily driving no it doesn't. before when i had the tires and rims on my 89 it only rubbed the LCA when i was at FULL turn and straining my power steering pump i never had an issue with it but as for having the same wheels on my new 96 the fenders are different so it rubs the fenders before it rubs my LCA's but looking at your fenders I dont think you have to worry about any rubbing, but if you want to be on the safe side i would get a rim with a 4.5 backspacing. as for you wanting the same size tire as me i say go for it. I love the tires i have now they're BFG AllTerrain T/A KO i had them a a long time now and they still look new with barely any tire wear.Originally Posted by jaythenewguytojeepn

the only reason why it rubs my fenders when turning is because there's a little lip that bent outwards i just haven't got out there to cut it off.
Kool...I was looking at those or some mudders ...not sure yet on what brand or style ....I just know 32*11.50*....... not sure yet was looking for maybe a used tire and rim set....I think if I get new rims I might go with 16 to help get that axle up a lil higher....
