33s I think you'll be ok but you'll want a 2" body lift for anything bigger.....

35s would be fine with correct bs wheels If you want to go all out and get full width axles. You could probably run 40s no problem

Not really sure how you are planning on putting a body lift on a cherokee?? kinda hard to do a body lift on a uni body!! Good luck with that one

Aren't all Cherokees unibody? Can't body lift a unidoby.

It doesn't matter high you lift it. Ur tires will still rub on control arms or frame unless u get different rims. Or Adjust your steering stops.

Search and destroy

Your tire size selections should be based on multiple measurements. Your shocks up travel/ bump stopping, if you plan on trimming or not, back spacing, steering radius, If you plan on 4wheeling or not.

For me I would suggest a 31x9.5" for no trimming and stock rims. Then 31x10.5 They may rub your control arms. If you plan on minor trimming 32/33x9.5/10.5, a different rim with back spacing and trimming 33x11.5/12.5 and for aggressive trimming 35x11.5/12.5 with a different backspacing. If it were me I'd go 33x11.5 on a different backspaced rim.

These are just my thoughts and you'll get different opinions.

That awkward moment when your sarcasm level is so advanced that people actually think you're stupid.

awesome! suggesting to run a 31" tire on a 6.5" lift. I know 2 guys with smaller lifts running 37's.

What rims? If you have proper backspacing, bump stops and trimming there's no (reasonable) limit. 6.5" is a lot of lift, so 35's would probably fit the profile well. Pics would help.

step 1 - what size tire do you want? (are you going to regear? what gears does it have now? what are your over all plans?)
step 2 - buy said tire, and see how it fits/rubs ect
step 3 - trim, adjust, get proper back spaced wheels if you didn't have them already.
step 4 - recheck, and Bump stop/limit strap if needed.



I run 35's on 5.5-6" lift. Its perfect for me. low and easy to get in and out of, has some up and lots of down.
