Wj 4" lift tires

[JustJoeyK138]

Have 2000 WJ and i am putting a 4" rough country short arm lift on it tomorrow. Rough country suggests using 265/75 but i would like to put on 285/75. Has anyone done this and if so did you have to chop it up or what?

Well I got the lift on over the weekend. Stuck with the 265's the 285's rubbed when i turned and any time i hit a good bump. Not that great for a daily driver.

Depends on what size wheel you are going with.
For 265/75r16 : = ~32"x10.5" (or -1 for 15" wheel, +1 for 17" wheel)
For 285/75r16 : = ~33"x11.2 (or -1 for 15" wheel, +1 for 17" wheel)

you'll probably rub a bit. Nothing a good fender and bumper trim can't fix.

I'm at 4.5" LA and put 33x12.5.15 on mine and had to take quite a bit off of my bumper and fender
