I've ran rough country and seemed to be a good brand...so Idk kind of what ever you'd like more.
They measure just over 11...and I measured inner bead to inner bead.

Next time you have the tire off it is either stamped inside on the rim or its under the center cap. I am curious as to what they list them as.

Lift help
I finally got the XJ I wanted (picture attached) and it's my first so I'm a noob to all of this. It's a2001 with 76xxx mile and is in great shape. I want a small lift may 2 or 3 inches. I've read where some people that have a 2 inch lift experienced some vibrations and had to do a SYE or TC drop. I large company near me that specializes in truck and SUV lifts told me that they've done numerous 4.5 lifts with 32's and never had any problems with vibrations and never needed to install a SYE or TC drop so why would a 2 or 3 inch lift need it. I'm trying not to spend a bunch of money so any advise would be great.

You actually have it a bit backwards the pre-1997 transfer cases are a lot happier with more lift than the newer ones. Mine has 5" with no tcase drop or SYE with 0 vibes on the freeway. It is pretty common for newer ones to not fare well over 3"

Ever since I added my 2 inch left my 4 wheel drive has been crazy. It won't come out of 4x4 and when it is in 4x4 it feels like its in low. Any idea?

Looking to upgrade wheels/tires. I was just going to paint my stock rims but want to get new ones instead. I have a 2000 Cherokee with no lift. In the future I plan on lifting it only 2". I want to run 30's for a while on stock suspension (should I go 30x9.5 or 30x10?) and want Cragar Soft 8's.
Would a 15x7 or 15x8 be smarter? What type of back spacing would be best 4"?
