225/70 or 245/70

[REnny3d]

what is the difference in these two tires? and will they both fit a prelifted?

 

[offroadohio]

245 is wider and taller. Dont believe a 245-70 will fit stock.

225-70 is smaller than what most came with stock.

Mine came with 225/75-16, so yes, the 225/70 are smaller diameter than stock.

Mine came stock with 225/75/16 but I am now running on 245/70/16 and they fit fine with no rubbing and my liberty is stock with no lift at all.

245-70X16 will fit fine, minor rubbing if fully locked to one side which is not good for the power steering pump anyways

if i went with the bfg at ko in a 245/70 would there be more rubbing or would i be good still?

Nope, you will be fine, I run 245/70 General Grabber AT2s which have a similar tread pattern and it only rubs like tommud said.

Riding 245/70/16 too. The only rubbing happens when I'm turning very sharp backing into a parking space.
