I currently am running a 2 inch bb and 30/9.5/15 a/t tire fenders are not cut jeep is all stock besides the 2 in bb and I found a set of Kelly safari tsr tires that I like and wanna throw on this winter just wondering if they will rub

Matt8822

Or I'm looking at the Dunlop radial mud rover but in a 30/9.50 size

Yes you will rub Sorry

Matt8822

Oh okay no big deal just wanna make sure i don't rub, gonna be lifting it eventually anyways but just gonna start looking at a more aggressive tire for the winter, as I see something wet and muddy and tend to get drawn into it

I was running 31 inch tires on stock suspension,(31x10.5R15 it was only rubbing in the back when I would hit a hard bump full of passengers. In the front, it would only rub on the lower control arms at full lock (steering wheel turned all the way)



What year is your xj??

So then you should be fine. The only thing you loose is flex.....But you will be fine for the winter. I had zero issues driving in 24 inches of snow with mine.

If u buy spacers will u get flex

You need to either cut your fenders or lift it.

If i cut it can i make it look professional someway without damage 2 it

Best way to do it is with a dremel or grinder wheel smooth cut and the back has to be cut and tucked if you Google it there are several step by steps on it
