The c load range is fine for your jeep. The e load range will result in a stiffer ride. I currently have the Goodyear mtr/k on my jeep and they have a c load rating. With your 2" spacers you can easily run a taller tire. The problem will be the width of the tire. If you want to run 12.5" wide tires on the stock rim you'll need wheel spacers or if you get new rims look for 4.5" of back spacing. That doesn't mean however that if 4.5" is good 5" is better in fact if I remember right it's worse. Basically if you think tire sizes are confusing wait til you start looking at wheel spacing.

Additional problems with much larger tires are your speedometer will be off. Most people agree that with 35" and above you'll need to strengthen your c's and your d30 axle. You'll also feel like your brakes are weaker your pinion angle will be off if you still have the stock stuff. There is probably stuff I'm missing.

I had the DuraTracs on my Nissan Frontier and they did a great job. Almost 3yrs running with little tread wear. They did outstanding in the MD snow the last couple of years and their pretty capable off road also. Good Luck
