    Default Tire size question

    Hello All,

    Wanted to know if 325/85 16's will fit a stock truck on stock split RING rims?

    Thanks,

    not sure of the actual dimensions of the tire u're referring to but an 11.00x16 is about all that fits comfortably. i believe they are 38 tall & about 9 wide.

    I have a set of the michelin XML 325/85/16s on my truck with the original rims. The only thing I have found is they will rub if you try to turn to sharply but other than that I havent noticed any problems. The one thing I had trouble with was getting someone to mount them. I found a local guy that did them and havent had any problems.

    here are the tires mounted

    Here they are on the truck

    Thanks for the info. I was wondering the same thing. 11.00x16 are getting extremely difficult to find these seem a little more common.

    Thank you I was contemplating buying a set, can you tell me where you got yours and how much you paid for them?

    It seems like tires for these Jeeps are taboo, I really want to run a set of MTRs, but I don't think I can.
