Think I may have settled on these and going after some 265/70/16s
Black Rock 941's

Pretty good looking wheel.
I'd stick to 7 inch wide though that way you can run other sizes later if you want to , BUT 265-70-16s sit on a 8 inch wide nicely ( depending on tire brand and tread pattern )
Will change up your KJ a lot !

Again look at overall weight between wheel sizes

I ran LT245/75R16's with 5 speed manual and did not notice much unless on the highway. If I kept that size I would have made the switch the 4.10's but grabbed a pair of new LT225/75R16's as the bigger size killed my fuel economy.

Anyone know what size lift and or spacers would be required to clear 33" grabbers? If they will fit at all. Got offered a set as partial trade wondering if I can get them on there or not

No point in even trying to fit 33s on a KJ
Unfortunately it would require much more than just a lift to fit them
Also spacers are not recommended at all with a KJ as they are terrible
You'd be spending some hefty money trying to put those tires on your ride

Over 4 inches of lift and at least 4.56 gears, preferably 4.88s with 33s
