| Post subject: | Lift... what size tires |
Im about to put the rocky road spacer lift on and want to know what the biggest tire i can put on will not being doing much if any off-roading but would like a mud-terrain or all-terrian that will fill the wheel well pretty good |

this is just an Idea .hopefuly some else will join in. 235/85/16 with just the pinch weld flat with stock liberty wheels. that about as high as i would go but 245/70/16 looks just as good. |

Most go with 245/75R16's,255/70's will fit nicely to. |

| Post subject: | Tire size without a lift |
I was going to put the Rusty's Coil lift on. The wife and I want to go to the U.K. next year for our 20th anniversary so I'm putting the lift on hold. But I still need new tires. would these work 245/70/16 General Grabber AT2 without the lift. Can I go any larger. |

Some will tell you that you can run a 245 75 16 BUT If you want to drive it any distance and go over curbs, speed bumps etc. just go for the 245 70 16s and you will be happy. It will ride, handle better and almost no rub except maybe backing up with the wheels all the way to the left(or) right |

a spacer and a clevis lift would be good for some 235/85's - narrow enough not to rub too much (except some trim up front), but big enough to realy mall crawl. Dayton Timberline's are great. I have MT, my brother AT. |

I saw the Timberline MTs up close on a pickup in my neighborhood yesterday. GREAT looking tire. Too bad there's no siping. Wish I could get a set on Renegade wheels just for offroading. |

in my opinion...grabbers SUCK....i bought them on my jeep last summer and put maybe...10000 miles on it and they are just about worn out...if i get another 3000 outta them ill be lucky...spend a little more money and get a good tire |
