Which tire is good for all-weather daily driving for my 2001 XJ?
I've got a 2001 XJ Limited that is bone stock. This is my "Cadillac", my daily driver to/from work, around town, and long trips. I have an '88 XJ Pioneer for the "dirty work". So I need new tires, have Hankook P225/70/R16 highway style on it now, which came with it when I bought it last year, and these are spent. I want some reasonably quiet, all-weather highway type tires to replace them. Not sure I'm crazy about Hankook, never owned them before on any of my vehicles and these came with my used Limited when I bought it last year, they were sort of low-tread then and I have put almost 15-16K on them. I don't want to break the bank with some high dollar tire like Pirelli Scorpions or Michelins but don't want cheap tires either that will wear out in 40K or less.
Do you think it would hurt my ride(comfort) if I went either one profile-size higher or wider?(i.e. 75 .vs. 70 or 235 .vs. 225).
I appreciate your recommendations and your experiences with the XJ and comfy tires.

Hi, I recently bought a 1994 Jeep Cherokee V6. I'm wanting to put a 8.5 short arm lift on it but I don't know where to start. Will I be able to fit 31" tires with that lift without trimming? I sure don't want to have to trim my fender flares.

^^^ What he said, but use pressure treated wood instead of steel blocks. It will give a bit and absorb vibrations. You won't feel the death wobble until it's too late
