Default Wheel and tire size - 01-21-2007 , 12:00 PM






Good day to everyone.

Could someone please tell me the maximum wheel and tire size I can
safely put on a 95 YJ. Stock set up.

Thanks,

Greg

I ran 30x9.5R15s stock, looked good and fit very nicely.
A friend of mine ran 31s, they fit, but I thought they were a little too
snug.
My 30s:

You can put a 31x10.50/15 on a stock YJ.

In some cases, there will be slight tire rub on the fender flares and/or
undercarriage. You can correct the rubbing on the undercarriage by adjusting
the Steering Stop Screws.

30x9.50R15 is a big as you can go without raising some issues with
rubbing on full lock turns or full stuff into the wheel wells on the
trail. Keep in mind that any of the YJ's are likely to have fairly flat
springs from original, doesn't help any for clearance.

31x10.50R15 will *USUALLY* fit with a steering stop adjustment and a bit
of rubbing on the trail.

30x9.5's. I have seen 31's on a few and they work on road, but will tag
off road.
