im looking at 235/75r16 bf goodrich rugged terrain t/a's on stock suspension, no room in the budget/need for a lift (only light off-road)...

will i have issues with rubbing? is the 245/70r16 a better size to go with?

the 235/75r16 will give me a little extra height but aren't as wide... what leads to more rub height or width?

anyone running these on stock set-up?

Part of it depends on how much yours has sagged already and what wheels you are running
If its sagged as much as some of the ones that I have seen here then they will more than likely rub some, how much depends
But when fully turned they will, plus possibly on the pinch weld

probably not too much sag, only 52k miles on her, live 1 mile from work haha... i have the stock wheels, spray canned them black years ago with engine enamel and clear coat which has held up extremely well... likely will have to re-do them when i get new tires bc of where the weight is mounted (painted right over it)... i've seen guys running the 245/70r16's on stock suspension with minimal rub but less on the the 235/75/r16's... which i think the added height will give it a more aggressive look (only 0.3 inches but hey, every little bit helps)..

I did one lift with the KJ having 61,000 and they were sitting almost an inch lower than stock, they had rubbing with 235-70s
age and mileage both take their toll
