What size wheels could you fit on a 1999 Jeep GC with the stock height?

My '04 Grand Cherokee came stock with 245x70x16"s, which measure 29 1/2"x 9 1/2". (29.50" x 9.50"). 30" x 10.50"s would probably fit but might rub a little on tight turns.

You could fit 20s or 22s if you wanted but the tire will be nothing more than a thin piece of rubber.

With no major work. Just with stock height. Will 18s fit ok?

should be able to fit an 18" without an issue assuming your tire size isn't stupid.

I don't want skinny little ones. And not major mud boggers either. Just regular tires.

Sounds like a job Google could handle for you! Your probably on the wrong site to ask about GHETTO STYLE wheels.

you might be able to fit roughly a 265/65R18 with minor trimming they are roughly a 31x10.50R18. BFG has some in their AT/KO's should be more than enough tire for what you want to do.
