Default 245/70/16 tyres on standard 16” wheels

My KJ has standard 16” wheels (16x7 I think) with 235/70/16 tyres. I found a set of 245/70/16 tyres and I’m wondering if these would fit my rims?

Yes they will fit the rims. The width is only 10mm wider and with a 70 profile the tyres are 14mm greater in diameter.

Easy fit for sure. I've now got 245/75 16's on mine with a 2 inch lift and they are fine.

Yes as stated above the tyres will fit the rims. Looking tge photo you posted it seems you do not have a lift, so you may get some rubbing on the sway bar and/or pinch weld at certain wheel angles during compression but nothing serious.
