32s on 3" rough country?
hey guys right now im at a 3 " rough country kit. I got bald 31 all terrains, so i want to upgrade. Could i fit 32s on there for the time being until i upgrade to a 4.5" kit? I have bushwackers already so i already trimmed for those.

When I got my current XJ (a 1992), it had a 3" RC lift and 32" Buckshot Mudders. With stock rims, they do run on the lower control arms, but not real bad. I never rubbed on the front fenders but when I had a load in the back, they would rub on the flares when I went over a bump. I have since gone down to 31" AT's and will soon be getting some aftermarket rims to get them scooted out a bit farther because the 31's still rub a little on the control arms. I could just adjust the stops but haven't got around to it cause it ain't a big deal.

Well, if you are looking at numbers, than yeah 4" or less. But if you are looking at it literally, then you need at least 4" backspace. Because 3.75" would really be more backspacing than 4. Anyways, you new what i ment. Haha
I also put the plus symbol, and wrote plus.
