I have 3.5 inch RE lift, it actually measures about 4-4.5 inches of lift. I want to know if I can run 32s without any trimming?

Okay guys here we go. Im going to get rid of the TSLs.. I thinking a set of MT/Rs or the Km2s I had before. ( I didnt realize how heavy TSLs were.. )
So with that being said, should I go to a 17" rim and get a 34 ( based off of aspect radtio converters ) Or just go with a 15" and 35s?
Also what backspacing? These are my options now
1) 35x12.50r15 ( what back spacing? )
2) ( Aspect ratio of close to 34s around 12.50 wise tire ) And again what back spacing?

I'd go max 4" BS for those tires. Maybe even 3.75 if you find it.

anyone tried Hankook Optimo H724 tires?
My jeep is 2WD (i know half a jeep haha) that stays on the pavement.
My tires are P225/75R-15.
I'm looking at new tires and one of my cheapest options is Hankook Optimo H724. Theyre about $410 here, for 4 with all installation and fees.
On the tire dealers website they have about a 4.5 stars rating from people with various vehicles.
I was wondering if anyone with a jeep xj has given them a look.
Thanks.

nah but FYI 235/75R15s will fit perfect and look way better under a cherokee than 225s.

Thank you. I put in 235/75R15 in their website and came up with LOTS more options. They have 29 235/75R15 tires in their catalog but only 4 for 225/75R15. Though the 235/75R15 version of the same tire i was looking at earlier is $8/tire more than the 225/75R15 version.

The hnt is just the connector on the back of the tcase, will work with many driveshafts. IRO does offer a Tom Woods option worry their hnt.
If it was me, I would take out the tcase drop (regain your ground clearance) and then measure. At 10" you may need degree shims in addition to the sye
