Comments: I love my revos. 5 stars.
Update: Well, I really enjoyed my Revos while they lasted...but they were worn out at 20,000 miles. Since they come with a 50,000 mile warranty, Costco gave me $60 per tire (for 4 of them--the spare wasn't worn enough) credit toward new BFG Mud Terrains.

Comments: The larger tires will rub in three places in the front: the sway bar, the air dam/front of the wheel well, and the back of the wheel well. To stop the rubbing on the sway bar install some 1.25" wheel spacers (Spidertrax WHS-002). The stop the rubbing on the back of the wheel well, cut off the plastic pinch weld cover, hammer over the pinch weld, and then cover all of the bare metal with undercoating. To stop the rubbing on the front of the wheel well you'll need to devise some way to pull the front of the well forward into the front bumper. You'll also need to trim out some of the air dam where it rubs. This is all possible and still looks completely stock. You should only get slight rub when the wheels are turned to the extremes while going in reverse. As for the back tires, they fit fine, although they do stuff off road, not that it hurts anything other than flexing the flares. You'll probably also want to put the spacers on the rear wheels as well for symmetry (probably other reasons as well). The spacers are just the right size for my Renegade that the wheels don't project past the flares, so they don't throw road crap up on the car. I love these tires and they got me through the muck when MTRs were getting stuck
SRotblat:
KJ: 2004 3.7l 4x4, Columbia Edition
Tires: Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo , 265/70-16, dont recall load rating will update
Wheels: OEM Columbia Edition wheels
Lift: Rusty's 2.5" Coil Lift (with Rusty's and Rancho shocks) claimed lift 2.5", actual lift in unmeasured, direct from Rusty's
Other: No trimming done, did rub on fog light cover and pinch weld a bit but not bad.
Comments: They were great for the first 10-15k, good wear and performance. They lasted ~45-47k and in the last 20k miles they have worn very poorly. Thread is very uneven, and the center of the tire has odd cupping and spots where the tread sticks out. I started out doing rotations at 10k mile intervals, but quickly changed to 6k (my oil change interval). Not sure if even shorter intervals were required to keep these wearing better.
