Another option to think about (especially for us Freedom Edition owners (17" rims).

Dang! I just spent $1100 on a set of Moab wheels + MTR's two months ago :shock:

A little late but oh well...I am satisfied with my Cooper Discover STTs, they come in either a 245/70/17 or 265/70/17...

Just to chime in on you guys. I like the 17's... Once the 4.5" SuperLift comes out I'm thinking of going with them. Can probably fit 285/70r17 with it, which is essentially a 33x11.50.

bur1196, I notice you have the new Cooper STT's. Just wondering how you like them. I'm in no way knocking my revos buy I like the aggressive tread on the coopers ?

I have the 17" also and would like to know this as well. It seems that the largest you can run on the 16" is 245/70 unlifted. So because we have an extra inch on the rim, 245/65 tires give the same height as 245/70 on the 16". If anyone else has better info, please chime in.
