Anyone know the biggest tire that you can fit (with little to no off road
rub) on a 96 Grand Limited with a 3.5" lift Kit.

Thanks

Significant fender cutting and/or flare relocation is required to fit
32x11.50 (Bill, that chart has problems). No big deal, just be prepared
to cut sheet metal and budget for aftermarket flares and wheels.

Manufacturers of most 3.5" ZJ kits recommend 31x10.50. Even then, you
will likely have to do some minor fender snipping under the flares:

You can fit 32x11.50 or 33x10.50 with a 4.5" lift. Again, minor fender
trimming likely required.

The deep backspacing of the stock wheels becomes an issue as you go with
bigger tires. Changing to wheels with less backspacing will limit
control-arm rub on tight turns and inner wheel well rub on full flex.
That being said, neither is hard to live with as they typically occur at
very low speed.

Steve, the Original Poster, asked for the biggest tire that would fit ZJ
with 3 1/2" blocks, what was all your babbling about? And you might
point out the problems with Four Wheeler magazine's chart.
