wild country mtx
I have a 94 jeep grand cherokee thats stock (no lift) and was wanting to get a set of 235 75r15 wild country mtx's. I was wondering if anyone has this size of mtx's on there stock jeep. Do they rub any? Do they have plenty of play room? And would I still be able to pull stuff, like my bass boat with no rubbing on the rear tires?

Old fart with a wrench
ZJs have a lot of room in the wheel wells. I had 235/70R15s on my 97 with no problems and the 75s are only a slight bit taller. I don't think you'll have any problems but that's just an opinion.
You can do the math. The profile (The 70 or 75) is the percentage of tire width that it's high. So, a 235/75 is 75% of 235 mm above the rim. Double that and add the rim diameter should give you rolling diameter or tire total height. Compare that with what you have now and see if there is enough room. The fronts at full lock steering is the determining factor. I doubt if they'll rub.
BTW, 1 mm is .03925"
