With 4" of lift will a 265/70/17 on stock wheels fit the same as a 265/75r16?

They are both 31.6"x10.4". If they would fit, I don't know, but they are the same overall size.

Actually 265/70 is 30.5 about.

Mine work great on MOABs. With more backspacing/narrower wheel...you might get more rubbing towards the inside of the fender. Like around the sway bar area. But overall the tire should be fine.

I run 31s with 3.25" lift and no rubbing
4" backspaced wheels, pounded pinch welds and good to go so with 4" you'd be able to run 32s (depending on tread) fairly easily but I wouldn't unless you regear
My 31s slow the Jeep down a little bit unless O/D is off

If you have 4 inches of lift then yes they'll fit like the 265-75-16s
About same height
A lot think that because it says 265-70 they are the same regardless of wheel size
