Default Will 9R15's Fit???

Hey guys,
Just a quick tyre question.

My dad has a 97 Grand Cherokee and he wants to know whether 9R15's will fit on standard rims and will they rub? He's Jeep is completly standard.

Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Steve

it should, standard ZJ Laredo tires were 225/70R15, think it was slightly bigger in the Limited?
anyhow, i presume 9R15 has width of 9" which is similar to 225's and i would guess the 9R15 is no taller than 30" so it should fit like the standard tires...

back in the day i had 245/75R16 fitted on my ZJ, and it did rub on full lock..

think ozjeeper might have a more definite answer for ya.. (tell me if im wrong.)

cheers

Thanks billsta.

I should have mentioned that the actual sze is 30x9.50R15. The width won't be a problem it's just the height I'm concerned about.

The height of the 225/70R15's are 701mm and the 9R15's are 757mm.
These are actual Overall Diameters of the Yokohama Geolander which will be going on it.

Going on what you ran (245/75R16, OD 782mm) it should be ok.

Does anyone run this size at all?

I'm at Emu Plains.

We might have to try them to make sure. I know plenty of tyre people around Sydney (used to be a rep for Yokohama) so I should be right.
