Hello, well Canadian Tire has a good sale on right now. They have a buy 3 get the 4th free on Goodyear Wrangler Territory. The closest size that I can find that is close to the 17" stock size is 245/75R17. Aside from a 3" lift I have not modified the front pinch weld.

So my question. Does anyone know if these tires will fit on a 07 KJ limited with a 3" lift and 17" rims?

That tire is 31.7 inches tall.
You will most likly get rubbing on the sway bar,
pinch welds, and plastic around the fog lamp doors.
Not to mention that you would want to re-gear
as a 31.7" (32") will zapp engine power.
Why not get the 245-70-17 which is 30.8" tall.

I must have been somewhat blind today lol. I didn't even see the 70 series in there. Will the 31" work just fine? I don't mind doing the pinch weld modification. Thanks for the response. I have been reading that 31's with a 2.5" lift can sometimes have moderate rubbing.

You might get some slight rubbing from the fog lamp access doors and
the sway bar at full lock (And usually in reverse).
You can use a heat gun on the fog lamp access doors and use something
with a rounded bottom to push it in a little. Just not too much or the fender
liner will hit the back of the fog light bulb!
