The j10 has 2.72 gears, and at least 2x's the tire size meaning even lower gearing. Kills in town mileage and power. Going back to stock od will help. Not rubbing, j10s can take big tires w/o lifts.
If anything I may go -size. Cheaper than gears. :)

Try TireRack.com. Put in the 235/75r15 size and state you want a
PlusOne. Not sure how they could be too large if they are on the
vehicle.... do they rub? Maybe you need new springs or a lift.

the ONE piece of information I needed... overall diameter... isn't to be seen either.
the od of a 235/75r15, which I'm pretty sure is the stock size for a J10, is 28.88 inches.
a 30x9.5 is 29.8, 31x10.5 is 30.?
I believe it has 265/70 R16s on it now... it's 10 mph off or so, specifically there is a 9.05% error.

Well, there are ways to calculate it... but of course it's weird.
(And I don't know it well enough to look it up and figure it out right
now.)
But I know your "28.88 inches" doesn't need to be that precise,
because different brands/models of tires that claim to be exactly the
same size will actually have diameters that can vary easily an inch,
maybe even two. Not as precise as you might expect.
