Sorry guys I understood from past threads that I would be good using the 285/70r17 on the 17x9 wheel just fine. What my other question was was if I could use the smaller size tires like the 265 or 275 ok on the 9" wide wheel. That was the part I didn't seem to get an answer for. Sorry if I missed or miss understood my answers. Kinda new to fixing up my own baby myself. Last jeep was lifted and had 35,s. I'm single now and kinda learning as I go here. Sorry again guys.
