I'm going to buy a set of 245/70-16s real soon for my 05 Lib.

I wanted Destination A/Ts, but just found out that they are on nationwide back-order for at least a month. :roll:

May have to settle for a set of General Grabber AT2s. :roll:

I have the 245/70R16 Destination A/Ts on my 04 Sport that I had to order last Summer. Remember the Destination A/Ts and the Grabber AT2s in the 245/70R16 size are NOT C-Load or higher rated tires (they are, however, in the 245/75R16 size). The only higher load rating (C-G) ATs that I know of in the 245/70R16 size are the BFG AT T/A KOs (those are D-Load).

I guess I got lucky. I just called a local shop this morning asking about the Destination A/T's in a 245/70/16. They said they could have five in the shop this afternoon. I am getting them for $127 each installed plus free lifetime balancing and rotations.

I have a printed quote right in front of me for $434.48 including Tax, Supplies, Mount and Balance.

Now....I have to wait a month to get them though. :roll:

Just remember that every KJ sits differently -- I have the OEM Steel Wheels and a Rusty's 2.5" Suspension Lift with a 3 Conduit Locking Nut Clevis Lift. My 245/70R16 Destination ATs rub against the front sway bar. I have a set of Spidertrax on order to correct this.

Also, not all 245/70R16 AT tires are the same. The Destination ATs in this size are 9.8" wide while the BFG T/A KOs are 9.6" wide (the Destinations are also 29.5" tall as opposed to the BFGs which are 29.4").
