I currently have a 2005 KJ Sport with 235/70R16 and have found someone selling barely used 225/75R16. Will these tires fit on the stock rims I have without an rubbing, etc.

These are the rims I currently have:

225/75R16 is also a stock size. My 2007 Sport came with that size on the same rims you show in the picture. If the ones you are looking at are Wrangler ST tires, pass them up. They are horrible. I had them stock and they only lasted 20k miles and were super slippery when wet.

Pretty sure that 235/70 is a Factory option so no problems
and you should be able to go up to 245/70/16 stock suspension - without rubbing.

They can't be any worse on wet pavement then the SR/A's. They are the worst I have ever driven on.

To the topic: those two sizes are interchangeable & your KJ will not notice them being changed.
