Default Tires in Jeep.

Do you think I could fit 5 285x75R16s in the cargo area of the Unlimited? I carried 5 255x75R17s when I purchased them. What do you guys think?

I carried 5 stock in my 2 door. It was tight and the top was off. I think you have a good chance in a 4 dr.

Don't see why not, it's only slightly larger in size. I threw my 5 Duelers back there a few weeks ago and they fit easily seats flipped down of course).

Thanks, thats what I was thinking. For safe measure I took the spare off, so I will mount one there and the rest should fit inside for sure.

Five 295/75/16's fit back there just fine.

But, if you're worried about it, leave your spare at home so you can toss a new one up there and put 4 in back.

I fit (4) stock rubicon tires mounted on the stock rims plus (1) 35" KM2 mounted just fine with the seats down. You will have no problem.
