question about 31 inch

[toples]

Hi Guys,

I have a question for you:
Does a 31" 10,5 will fit on my KJ on a 15 inch wheel? If yes, what is the backspacing recommended.

P.S I already have a 2,5 inch liftkit

Thinking 4in.

Check my KJ's OK album for pics of what a 31x10.5 on 15 is gonna look like. I've got Cragar Soft 8's 15x8 with 4" of backspacing.

@ PTSB5a : what was your lift with your 31x10,5 ? Did you have to trim the fender or something else?

Depending on what tire you run, that will determine the trimming needed. I run 31x10.5x15 on 4"BS Soft 8's too and I had to trim quite a bit on thwe front by the fog lights and fender flairs.

I pounded the pinch welds down flat. No trimming up front with the ARB bumper. The tires rub a little on the sway bar. I've got a pretty tired Rusty's spring/shock lift.

im running 31x10.50r15 BFG ATs on 15x7 soft 8s with a 4 in bs. I have revtek lift an my tires rub my pinch welds and fog light doors when im off camber and making a turn. Its not bad enough to worry about.

All depends what type of lift, mileage on KJ and on lift
all of this I have a 2 inch, 2.5 inch etc means nothing really, some companies advertise to sell not what one may really get.
So to the OP what kind of lift do you have if I missed it, also measure from the center of the wheel to bottom of the flare, that will give a better clue to what will or will not rub.
For example I am at a little over 23.25 with an ARB front bumper and 265-75s, at 22.50 with the old lift I rubbed slightly on the beat over pinch weld, now with the new lift no rub! Oh and Moabs ( 8 inch wide) with 5 inches of backspacing
