Hey everyone,

I have a 2011 Jeep Liberty KK Sport 4x4, I want to get new tires because I constantly burn out on wet pavement when hitting the gas, I kinda have a heavy foot :wink: I'm usally rolling around it front wheel drive due to the fact I drive in the city a lot. I would like to get some tires that are good for all conditons and can even be used off-roading.
Can someone or some people suggest some good tires for my KK.

Thank you ! :D

Welcome to Lost.

DO NOT drive in 4wd on pavement. Its a good way to break stuff. Drive like a civilized human being. Buy some Firestone Destination A/Ts. Theyre my favorite all terrain tire. Cheap, light weight, quiet and lasting.

The Liberty doesn't have a front wheel drive option ... Your day to day is in rear wheel drive. If you have the Selec-Trac 4WD system you can drive in 4WD Auto on pavement without issues. If you have the Command-Trac, no 4WD on pavement. Even with a heavy foot you really have to be mashing the gas to spin the tires even on wet pavement and if that's the case even new A/T aren't going to help you. Maybe you should ease off the gas pedal a little, save you're self some gas money.

If you want new tires there are thousands of options depending on your size. If you have the sport wheels which are 16" you have A LOT of tires options both in the stock size and a few bigger sizes.
check out www.TireRack.com or www.DiscountTireDirect.com for tire options.
