What's the TALLEST tire anyone has run on a stock KJ?

[spacomponents]

Threads here seem to say we can get away with 245/70-16's on stock wheels/suspension.

Does anyone know of the TALLEST (not widest) tires we can get away with? Our KJ is 4x4, '04 with factory alloys, came with Wranglers 235/70-16's.

Thanks!

Pretty much the 245/70R16 size... I haven't heard of anyone trying much of anything else. Anything much bigger and the rub process starts. Some (read: 1) have reported rubbing even with that size.

I'm running 245/65-17 with no problems...

245/70R16 is the MAX you can run on stock suspension. If you get some rubbing you can do a clevis lift and/or some trimming and pound the pinch weld.

I thought about 235/75R16 tires. Same width, one inch taller.

Some run a 235/85 which is a 32" but it requires a lift, and trimming
