Jeep Wrangler Tire Size Selection Guide

Updated on Aug 16, 2023

Looking to install a set of oversized tires on your Jeep Wrangler? Before making your selection, it’s essential to know which tires are best suited for your particular generation and suspension setup. Whether stock height, leveled, or lifted, choosing the incorrect wheel/tire setup can lead to irritating fitment issues, including rubbing at full lock, contact while articulating, and more!

To ease your decision, our experts at Realtruck have done the hard work for you! Use the tables below for factory tire sizes by generation and our recommended sizing for 2.5 to 3.5-inch lift kits.
