TJ Wheels on a 97+, Pros and Cons?

Considering a set of TJ Moab wheels for my 97 XJ...

Max tire size will be 32, suspension is at about 4 inches, long drives on pavement, dirt road, and crawler-trail use, a recreational vehicle not a daily driver, don't plan to trim fenders. 31s on ecco 15s stuff nice now and only contact the rear edge of the front bumper which I plan to replace.

What are your thoughts and experiences - pros and cons on this change?

load range impact
fender clearance
impact on tire choices
other?

Thanks!
 
TJ and XJ wheels are the same. I'm running a set of 16" Rubicon rims.
 
Same here, TJ Moabs are a great fit and look very clean. Most of the 16in tire choices will be metric sizing (265/75R16 vs 32x10.5x15), but I haven't run into any restrictions. All tire manufacturers will have full size runs of anything you could want, usually in multiple load ratings.
