you should be fine with the 235 75 and you might check walmart.com on those tires it might be cheaper since you dont have to pay for shipping i think there 135 and have a 100 dollar mail in rebate oh and i run the general in a 255 70 and i have right at 30000 miles on my but i carry mail and have crap roads and mine are due for replacing

Thanks for the info Jessie, other than the tires do you think those rims will fit my xj?
they say 15x7 5x4.5 5 lug rims

The bolt pattern is correct but i dont know much on backspacing and all that stuff so i would let someone else chime in on that

Yep 5x4.5 is the correct bolt pattern. You sure you aren't going to upgrade your tires later? Most people buy 15x8 with a shallower offset when they go to replace stock rims

Gotcha thanks. Heres the link again http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cragar-Black...ht_1621wt_1163

Salad, I read online that 235-75-15s barely fit 15x8s, I had the 15x8 crager rims bookmarked before I read that. I plan on going with the 235 instead of 225 since they are harder to find and tire rack is out of stock in those general grabber tires in the 225 size. Id like to get a 4.5in lift with 31s however a lift isnt in my budget. Was thinking about tires and rims and calling it a day, just wont be wheelin it which isnt to bad in reality since I need reliable transportation over a trail rig.

5x114.3 is the same as 5x4.5

I have a set of 235/75r15 Goodyear Wrangler RT/S's mounted on American Racing Baja 15x8's and they fit great. I wouldn't mount them on 15x10's, but I don't see any reason why they wouldn't work on 15x8's.
