235/85/16
 
Does anyone know if I can run a 235/85/16 on my stock 2004 d2 until I get my lift put on. thanks

I was gonna run the 245/75/16 but I would rather have the xtra inch in height plus it's cheaper than the 245/75/16. I'm gonna go with the bf a/t's.

Yes. I wouldn't push it too hard off road, but they'll fit just fine for driving on-road until you get your lift put on. I drove mine for a month or two with 235/85 16s on it at stock height...

Please check out the Kelly safari tsrs in 235/85! You won't regret it much better than the ATs

I actually had those on my cherokee before I sold it. They were ok, but I don't think they will last as long as the BF at's or the genneral at2's. I was also checking out the maxxis buckshots. I'm getting one of them in the morning so I have to make up my mind quick. Also will be installing a terrafirma 2 or 3" lift soon.

I am having the same dilemma. 235/85's or 245/75's.

Post some pics of the 235's. I love the tall skinny look on a Rover

If you think the Kelly wore fast don't even look at the maxxis

Why would you want such a skinny tire on this truck??? Especially with a lift.

I notice your signature line says you're running 255/85. Can I get away with those on a 2" lift? I really don't want a bigger lift than that, but I saw a Defender with 255/85 and it looked awesome. I really want the GY Duratracks but I don't know if I can get them in that size.
