Gepends in the Jeep....A JK will fit upto a 33" stock....whereas an XJ will require 3"+
Then it depends on how much cutting or body lift is done.

and if you go wider flares you can use diferent back space rims to avoid inside rubbing.

depends on how much you want to spend and what sort of wheeling you want to do. a 4.5" RE kit will enable 32" and 33" tyres to be fitted with the guards cut out about 2".

me and mate fitted 31s on my xj sport, just by removing the flares partly, then we trimmed the wheel arches where it was rubbing when flexed on ramps in the driveway. refitted flares and no problems since. i will be installing a two inch lift shortly, due to more weight being added to the car and will look sick. "31s WITHOUT LIFT KIT STILL NO WORRIES."
