285/70r17 on 2022 Texas Trail Gladiator with stock wheels and stock lift.

Yeah I have to admit Jeep has done a spotty job with explaining the suspension changes for 2024 as I have a Jeep Beach Edition which has the Willys suspension and I was attempting to get specs and ground clearance info and it was hard to come by.

From all media I've seen, the ground clearance on the 2024 Rubicon is 11.1 inches, Mojave is 11.6 inches, and the Willys is 10 inches. Obviously tire size comes into play here, but those are the stock specs from what I can gather.

To add further confusion, both Willys and Rubicons (2025) seem to have a 73.6in stock height. Which would make sense if they both had the same springs. Would it make sense for them to have the same height but different ground clearances?

Edit: Just found this on Jeep.com. Of course they leave out the Willy's for some unknown reason.

"The height of the 2025 Jeep® Wrangler models are as follows (hardtop):

4xe – 73.5 inches

Sport/Sahara/Rubicon – 73.6 inches

Rubicon 392 – 74.5 inches

Xtreme Recon Package – 75.5 inches"

And I have no idea why/how the sport and rubicon would have the same height???

265/70s are shorter than the 255/75. Speedometer reading makes sense.

About 3/8” shorter, some style tires by increasing the width with a lower sidewall works out the same height overall. In this case it didn’t. But I’m ok with the change.
