I have the opportunity to buy P215/75 R15 Goodyear Wrangler tires for my '89 YJ. They came off a 2001 Cherokee Sport
Does anyone know if these would be recommended for my wrangler both in terms of lug pattern and tire size?
Thanx Bill
The 215-75x15 was one of the factory optional sizes so they should fit with no problems.
You don't say what particular Wrangler tire model you have there but it really doesn't matter.
Highway tires will have a better ride and handling on the road, ATs are a compromise, and MT are better in the mud...
They will be a good size for traction and are one of the size options for a YJ I believe.
I know that my friend's 89 YJ takes the same rims as my 88 Cherokee so unless they changed something or the rim backspace is way off, they should fit no problem.

Makes you wonder how all those GIs managed to get around using only
6.00x16s..
Check JP magazine's website. I can't remember which month it was, but they recently ran an article about how big of a tire you can put on various Jeeps. It was pretty good. They even sized them for various lifted and stock height applications. Pete
