I know there are hundreds of "how big" threads on here.
My question is not a matter of how big but rather clarifying which will fit best.

When I bought my 05 CRD Limited last spring it came to me with 4 new Goodyear Wrangler ST 225-75-R16's
I had chosen to leave them on for the time being due to them being brand new but, winter has arrived and although they do fine on dry pavement, they lack in the snow.

Now on my 95 Cherokee that I sold when I bought my CRD I had a set of Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs, which I loved.
Living In Michigan the duratracs did outstanding in the snow, and great in my back 40 as well, so Im wanting them on my CRD.

My question is in reference to what size duratracs will fit on my CRD as it is now. No lift.
There appears to be a lot of misinformation online regarding what will fit, just trying to clarify.

If I go with the same 225-75-R16 size that I currently have, but with the duratracs will they fit ?

Below is a link showing all manufactured sizes for the duratracs, if the 225-75-R16 won't fit would you advise if my next best option?

Thanks for taking the time to help me out, much appreciated.

Depending on how much yours has sagged will make a difference, but that size should fit with possibly minor rubbing. You may also check the tire and wheel section for more information
The Duratracs do great for sure. Living in Northwest Ohio I've used mine quite a bit in snow, after 65,000 they are still doing their thing!

Indeed I have read about the suspension sag issue, but i guess my thought process is if my current tires are that size and they fit then the duratracs will fit as well, right?

Most likely will still fit.
If you have time you can take measurements from middle of center cap to bottom of fender flare.
