Default Off roading tires

I'm wondering what would be a nice large tire for a blazer with cranked torsion bars and a 1.5" rear lift. I have stock rims and now I'm just running the standard 235 75 15 and am wondering what I could get that will fit with no rubbing. Thanks for the advice

30's or 31's with a 2" body lift on stock rims. If you go with aftermarket rims you'll have to trim the front fenders.

If you go with 31s, you'll be going as big as you can go. But that doesnt do you any good if you have no articulation. If youre going to offroad it, I'd say go with 30s.

i would get 30s if you plan on doing any offroading unless you get a body lift. My 31s are almost bald and i still catch the top of the fender on big bumps.

I had 265/70/16's and a 2inch body lift and I had to do some fender trimming. I still rubbed when turning+bumps

265/75/15s are pretty much 31x10.50s.

My 265/70/15s are 30x10.50.
