Was just looking for some pics of other cherokee's that have stock height with wheels 31' or bigger. Im just looking because im going to possibly pull the trigger on some 31' tomorrow. Thanks

Yessir!! Do that **** up!! Trim, bump stop and be grinnin.
...what's your current suspension lookin like? Saggin? Good to go? Maybe pull the trigger on a 2" BB as well. Cheap and will offer a lil ore clearance. That and a 2" on 31" looks good.

I think it would look sweet but you're gonna have to trim like hell.

I vote for the 2" BB also, cause I think you are still gonna have to trim but not as much and then when you wanna lift it proper you wont have trimmed too much off.

Super swampers

And I actually own a stock junker jeep on 31's no trimming at all.. If you have stock wheels they should fit, but they'll rub on the LCA's at close to full lock more than likely. Just drive it till you can shell together the $100 for the 2" spacers and shackles

You don't need any trimming just don't go more then 1.1 rotations left or right and make 2 point turns lol.... And don't do stupid stuff like go 40 mph over speed bumps obviously lol. If you do those things you will be just fine

i had 31x10.5 BFG all-terrains on before my 4.5" lift. rubbed the LCAs at full lock, and the rear flares would rub a little at full flex...mind you my suspension was as sagged out as sagged out gets after 200k (and broken shackles apparently.)

well i got the tires for $150 and theyre BFG All-Terrains with normal wear so a pretty good deal i think. I chopped up the front fenders and rolled the rears so im hoping they fit without a problem. Now im either going to mount them tomrrow or Wednesday and ill let u kno how it goes

Do it

BTW, I'm new and I think I could say "x2" here! (it's said "times two" right?)

Anyway, here's my rig as it stands waiting for the 4.5" lift due for June.
