yes they should fit. a friend of mine was able to fit 31's with all stock suspension and a 235 75 r15 is about 30inches tall so you should be good.   
I'm pretty sure 215 75 15 is stock tire size witch is about 27 inches tall.

It might be close without a bit of lift. Mine came with 205/75/15's :roflol:

Stock are usually 205.75R15's or 225.75R15's.

Stock wheels will usually be 9-slot 15x6 or spoked 15x7.

They'll fit, but will rub with a little bit of axle articulation like a ramp into a parking lot.  Will also rub in the rear with rear passengers.

Had 31-9.5's no rub at all. on stock springs. Then added 2 inch lift and run 33-12.5 and they don't rub with the wheel spacers.

My YJ came with 31 10.5 and stock springs, and it rubbed with any kind of articulation or if I let 2 people in the back...
