Title: Will 31's fit on my car with stock height?
Post by: 96CherokeeStinger on December 30, 2007, 11:04:03 PM

Well I wanna get some 31's tires on my cherokee but I dont know if I will have any clearance problems or rubbing problems... I wanna get 15" rims with maybe 31's but dunno if it will rub when I turn or anything... If not then im also looking at 30X9.50R15 Goodyear Wrangler w/SilentArmor or 30x9.5 Dunlop Mud Rovers...what tires do you guys reccomend me with stock height.... Im also looking for brands if you guys can help me out.. Im looking for an agressive look to the tires and good price. I want the off road look to it but with street driveability... thanks  8)

I'm not sure on the size issue with the Cherokee but I'd go with a set of BFG A/T's. Oh, and it's a Jeep... not a car.

you won't fit 31's or probably even 30's without a lift.  with a three inch lift you can get them on comfortably.

2wd=car, JK.  I had a set of Dunlop Mud Rovers on my Bronco and they were great.  They smell funny when they get hot, but they have excellent tread life for an M/T.  If you put a locker in the 2wd and put some M/T's on there, you'll have a blast and gas milage  :thumb:.

Lol, I just checked his signature. You're right, it's 2wd. My bad. "Car" is the proper term.  ;)

Yup, just what he said.  XJ's can't clear +30" without lift.
