Default Probably a stupid question...

i recently acquired some used "30 x 9.5 R15LT" bridgestone Dueler a/t tires, and the spare that came with my jeep is a brand new goodyear wrangler gs-a which also says 30 x 9.5 R15LT on it. my tires are all super bald and i was thinking about putting the bridgestone tires on the front and buying a new goodyear just like the spare and using those on the back. I dont really know anything about jeeps or anything (this is my first car) but i suspect if the tires were different sizes it would be bad for my transfer case, and i was just wondering if the setup i said before would be okay or if it would cause problems for some reason.

Let me know if you need any more information or anything,
thanks alot!

All four tires should be the same size. That should answer your question.

LT means LIGHT TRUCK

I would assume the one that doesnt say LT is also an LT tire as they dont typically size tires american that are passanger rated.

AS long as they are all 4 30-9.50's you will have no issues.

yes,they will fit on a stock grand but there is a very small possibility they may rub just a little here and there.
