Default Anyone running 30x9.50 R15 on a stock ZJ, or a similar size?

Time for new tires, and I'd like to get something a bit bigger than I've currently got (225x75 R15), if anyone who's running 30x9.50 R15's, or something similar in metric on a stock ZJ can answer a couple questions it'll help me out.

1. Have you got any issues with rubbing?
2. How much is your speedo out?
3. Does the spare fit in the stock location?

Is there anything else I should be considering in going up a tire size or two?

Stick with 225. 30 on stock will not even add points to the looks department. It will not rub but it will be a mouthful in ur wheelwell. But it's up to you where or what u want to use it for.

30 will not fit in the back and speedo is negligible. I've been with 30 before on my ZJ.

30 with 2" BB is best combination.

I had 30x9.5 on stock for a while no problem at all.

Ive got 31 now but Im lifted but I you could put 31 on if you trim the plastic a bit.

Roger, you can get 235x75R15 (28.8") but size not available with all major brands. I believe they are fitted standard on Ford Explorers. This will look better than ur 225 and gives u a little bit of increased height.

Four years ago when i had them they were available only in AT from Yokohama and Uniroyal. Maybe GY or BF have them now in 15".
