Default Tire sizes for ZJ
I've been looking around for what tire sizes fit on a stock height ZJ.
There is a set of 33x12.5-15 in good condition not far from me. I don't know if they will fit without a lift or trimming.

You could probably fit some 31s but they would rub like hell

With stock rims I also fit some off brand AT 31's with minimal rubbing at full turn and bottom corner of front bumper trim. No rubbing after BB install.
Any with a big side lug like swampers are going to rub, most AT's wont.

If your wanting to run 33's save for a lift or do a whoooooole lot of trimming and bumpstops.
