Will 225/65/17 tires fit without any rubbing on a stock 2015 Latitude with 1" spacers?
Yes, you will be fine with that setup. Anything larger then a 1 inch spacer will cause the tires to rub a little bit when turning (at about 3/4 turn) with 225/65R17.

I have a 2017 latitude 4x4. I am having my Pirelli All terrain plus 225/65/R17 installed on Friday. I'm not using any spacers. I'll let you know how it goes. From what I read from all the guys on the forums, they should be fine so that is why I am going for it.
Let me know I just bought a 2020 Jeep Renegade latitude with 17x 7 rims. I was looking at the 225/65R17 tires as well.

You should be good, we like pictures, please post some pictures of your Renegade after you have the new tires installed.
I had the Pirelli All Terrain plus 225/65R17 tires installed. I think they look and ride great. Also, they raise the clearance from the 67K miles that were on the original OEM tires.

Wheels and Tires

Modification in general

In the snow

I started off with 1.5 inch spacers all the way around and had a little rubbing at 3/4 turn if I hit a bump, or going up a curb.

I replaced the front spacers with 1.0 inch spacers and got rid of the rubbing.
End setup: 1.0 inch spacers in the front, 1.5 inch spacers in the rear (see "in the snow" pics).

The rims are: MR701, 17X7.5, 5X110, -30mm offset.

I never thought about a different size in spacers for the rear. But thank you for that small detail it helps a lot :) also another question after adding those tire size “ 225/65/17 for off roading, would I need to do any other work on the suspension, on the springs or bushings or shocks.?? So I don’t mess up my Jeep cuz they have to be very well done. & it’s my first Jeep I always owned cars & I don’t wanna have rumbling issues 😅 or anything like that. I wanna take good care of it :)

No, the 225/65R17's should fit without modifications.
