yea, i had to pound down the pinchweld, and trim some around the foglight door, add a 3rd hockeypuck to the rear bumpstops to keep the tire from popping loose the door flare, everything is good now!

only spot it rubs is on that "wall" in the wheelwell, that the upper a-arm is mounted to, by the swaybar, at FULL lock, nothing i worry about

Well i guess that is a no go for me then. I will stick to the 245/75s. Plus, another thing, the 235s are really designed for 3/4 and 1 ton applications. I bet they will last you forever but the sidewall is really rigid and won't flex as well as a 6 ply tire. Thanks for the info. I really like the look of them on your Jeep. I guess I just need to go ahead and realize that the 245s are the best for the Liberty. I just wanted more ground clearance. Plus, the 245s are actually a well proportioned looking size. Thanks!
