Should have no problems fitting 235/70 on your Jeep. They came stock on some KJs. |

mine came with 235/65-17 so I'd think it would work alright. |

also no. The 16 is the rim size so a 16 will fit a 16 (too a point, have to watch the width of the rims/tires as well) but not a 17. 225/235/245 should all fit on the same rim. on a side note, go over to Tirerack.com and look a tthe specs page for a tire. You can see all the diffferent measurementrs for each tire size to do size comparisons. I believe the 225/75/16 is the same OD as the 235/70/16 but the 235 is a bit wider. |

I have 235/70R16 on 8" Moab rims and they are a snug fit, so on stock rims should be fine. BTW, the handling is awesome on the wider rims with more backspacing. |
