I have a Stock 92 XJ and it's had a set of 215/75/15 Goodyear Wrangler APs on it since 1996. I checked the tires today and noticed that I have some dry rot so I guess its time to replace. I know that some of the 97+ XJs came stock with 235/75/15s so I was wondering if I could run a set of those. Could I do the 235s without an issue? Could I go any bigger than that even?

But yea, 235's shouldn't be a problem.
I ran 30/9.5/15's on my 93 when it was stock. Didn't rub during dd, but did at full stuff
