Silent Armours are an excellent tire ...

Don't expect much more than the 80,000 km tread life though.

... in a few days I hope to find out that Duratracs are even better!

If you're running stock you could also go with 245/70/16 as that size will also fit under the stock height. I've currently got Destinations on my KJ and overall I love them. The mild wheeling that I have done with them they did great, they are great in the rain and snow as well.

Did you have any rubbing?

Thanks for all the suggestions, I'm doing rims n tires right now on my stock suspension so Im stuck with 235/70/16 and the duratracs dont come in that size so I guess Im going with the destinations! They should be fine for now as Im only gonna be doing mild wheeling till I get my ome lift and full skidrow setup then Ill buy some tires that can take me anywhere I wanna go!

Any thoughts?

if you are interested in duratracs, 225 75 16 can fit stock rims and is ~same diameter within .25" as 235 70 16, ie no rubbing without lift.

I rarely have little if any rubbing. If I do get rubbing it is only a full lock on the inner side of the inner wheel well. It isn't even enough to put any marks in the plastic inner fender. Personally I like the look of the bigger tire so I feel it's well worth and occasional tire rub at full lock.
There's a pic with the 247-70-16's
