Here are a list of all the factory option tires and their overall tire height.

Sport 225/75-16 = 29.2"

Sport/Limited 235/65-17 = 29"

Limited 235/60-18 = 29.1"

JET 245/50-20 = 29.6"


I think Boblemoche has the biggest tires on a KK 285/75-16 = 32.8"


If you are curious on how to come up with this number follow this equation

Example: 225/75-16

Take the Width (225) and multiple it by the height (.75) = 168.75 This number represents the sidewall height. Remember you have technically have 2 sidewalls to measure (top and bottom)

Convert the rim to mm 16 x 25.2 = 406.4

168.75 + 168.75 + 406.4 = 743.9

Convert 743.9 to inches 743.9 / 25.4 = 29.2" (Overall diameter)

Thanks Mike for adding more useful info to the TECH section.
I've seen 235/70/16s come stock on a renegade too.

Side note: maybe a mod can go through and clean up all the Q&A non reference posts in here?

I just put a set of P255/65/16's (Hancooks) on my stock lib. I wanted a 2 inch lift before I did it but ended up with tires before the lift. I still plan on a lift but these tires don't seem to need it. I ran it up on a berm at different angles and I didn't get any rubbing. But after seeing it on the hydro lift at the discount tire with some space between the tires and wheel wells, I think a 2 inch lift would give me the assurance of no rub plus it would help make it look like it's not trying to hunker down to the ground. Since I put some JCR offroad rockrails on it, it looks a little low. :(
