ET 0 rims with stock tires

[btd]

Hi!

2003 kj without lift.
Stock size tires: 235/75 r16

will they rub if I switch 16x7 rims with stock ET 38 to rims with ET 0?

Not sure but there is a tire conversion calculator that might help out. you can put in the tire sizes and figure out the difference, then use that with the stock settings of the jeep. For instance, when you go to the link it will take you to the tire size calculator, just tab to the tire size comparison and imput each one.

I don't see how tire calculator can tell me anything about rubbing of wheels with different backspace (ET)

Using the measurements. For instance with my lift I know my max tire size was 31". But I went with 265/75 for the look which is a 31.6" tire. so to figure out how bad I would rub, without spacers, I calculated it out with the measurements of the inside and using the tire calculator to figure out the rest of the dimensions of the tire. Basically i don't rub unless i am turning the wheel to the extreme left or right, light pulling in/out of tight spots o_o

Not sure what you mean by ET but you need the high backspacing of the stock rims otherwise you will rub. With a lift, you can go closer to 4 inches of Backspacing. Most certainly not 0...
