you need lif to run anything bigger... anything bigger then a 31 you need to change gears.

I run 245/70R16 general grabber at2's in the summer.

 

[lutz2309]

so then 235 70 16s will fit without lift and wont hurt anything

 

[lutz2309]

do the 245s fit good without lift and did you have to change gearing?

 

[dude1116]

245s will likely fit but that depends on how much your suspension sagged. Mine's pretty beat. I think I'm sitting at 17.5 inches around (hub to flare). When my 235/70s were new they rubbed. No regearing necessary for either size.

no gear change needed. Also the 245/70R16 are a great size for someone who wants to off road but does not want a lift like me.

245's might rub on sway bar.

yea I think im gonna look at 235s in a m/t or a/t I deff don't want any rubbing and also the 235s in that picture look like they fit well thanks everyone if anyone has a picture of there kj with the 245s on it I wouldn't mind seeing it just for a comparison

The photos you seek are all over this and other KJ forums...

You have to realize that ten different KJ owners could put up 10 different photos and they would all be different somewhat due to the various stages of sagging.
What it looks like on one at 19 inches in front will look completely different on one that is sagged 1.5 inches
