What's the biggest tire I can run?
The largest tire you can fit under your Jeep depends on many things. These are general rules of thumb for safe limits that will still allow some room for articulation. Remember there are also other things to consider such as wheel backspacing, to ensure the tires clear things like springs or control arms. Also keep in mind axles have tire size limits too, put a 35" tire on a Dana 35 beat on it and you'll be calling a tow truck.
