I have a 2008 kk and I'm looking to order new tires this week. I want to know if anyone can tell me if this tire size will fit on my jeep. I do not have a lift and have stock rims.

right now I have 225/75/16 which is stock

I was looking to get the Wrangler Silent Armor Tires http://www.goodyear.com/en-US/tires/wra ... ilentarmor
LT235/85R16

Would this fit without any rubbing? or am I better off getting the same size as the stock?

You're better off with a shorter tire. That's a 32". It would rub, rob power and decrease mpg.

Just my 2 cents...

I have 235 75 16 AT's and I have had no rub at all. Have had this size for a couple of years now. I am stock with no lift...here is a crappy cell pic but you should get the idea of what it looks like.

That's what I'm thinking about getting. I heard good things about them, but the tire guy by me just said he doesn't know much, it's not a popular tire here. Oh well, its nice to be different :twisted:

What's your opinion of them?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to ya.


Honestly, they are the best tires I have ever owned. In all weather conditions they are great, snow is especially fun. Off road wise I haven't really pushed them, just some light trails, but they performed flawlessly.
