Tire size for all around driving

[jdgmbi1]

So, I currently have P215/75SR/15's (PO installed) on my 04 jeep, and they look like donuts on a Cadillac Fleetwood.
Without a lift, or spacers, what would be the biggest all-around tire I could run on it. I don't need anything real aggressive and an M+S would work fine. I'm good with changing just the tires, or wheels and tires if need be.

This falls under the category of I don't need new tires, I WANT new tires!

Thanks in advance for any input.

Or he could to 31s with some potential rubbing at full turn, right?

31's are fine and depending on the actual tire there may be a rub but it's easily corrected with a washer added to the steering stop.

I have 31” tires no lift and no rubbing.

I’ve had 31x10.50 ko2’s that rubbed stock and I now have on a different Jeep 31x10.50 crappy no name brand street tires that do not rub stock. So if you can find some all season 31’s you should be good.

Thanks everyone.

You would be happy with 31 10.50 x15's. You may see a slight rub on factory wheels

I you want new tires, you should want new wheels. A 15X 8 wheel with a 31 10.50 X 15 tire will fit perfectly.

You have a valid point.

Is this the added washer at steering stop?

That be it, if necessary.

215 to 235/75R/15 or 29/9.5 is the right size proportionately with no lift, thats 2 sizes up from what you have.
Factory had a 30" option but 30" is not 30"
29s look the same as 31,s on a 2" lift without the lift except they have about an inch less diff clearance for off roading. Your TJ looks like it aint going rock climbing anytime soon
Keep it "Proportionate" looking! 29s or max 30,s is my opinion unless you want big tires and then a a lift.

31s are proportionate with no lift.

It depends how you use them offroad. My aftermarket trans/oil pan skid was scraped all to hell.

My 99 had 31 x 10.5 x 15 tires on stock rims when I bought it. They weren't aggressive tread but they rubbed on tight turns. To me, they looked way too fat.
I replaced them with 30 X 9.5 X 15 Firestone Destinations and optional "Gambler" wheels. The 30 x 9.5 tires were original equipment on '99 Saharas.
Pictures of before and after.
