just signed in hopefully to find info. on my liberty. I have rough country 3" lift, just put 265 r75 16's on m/t classic wheels. Of course have a little rubbing on front and back. I have trimmed a little wheel well here and there. Tried spyder wheel spacers and made it worse. Is there anything I can do to ease the rub? I also have upgraded front brakes, put k/n cold air intake on am getting exhaust upgrade next week. Going to Colo. to 4wheel in a couple of weeks< Ouray area. Love it out there!!!!

Welcome!

There's a lot to be done to run 32" tires on the KJ. First hope you got a quality lift. Something like a rusty's may fit 32's now, but in 6 months... not so much. Next wheels, you must have the correct backspacing. You really should have 16x7's with 4.5" of BS. An 8" wide rim will work, but it will increase the chance of rubbing, and it really is to wide a rim for most KJ tire sizes. Most tire manufactures only recommend a 7" wide wheel for a 265. Depending on your year, you will have to trim some of the front wheel well liner, and pound your pinch weld. Relocating the windshield washer bottle is a must do on most KJ's with that big of a tire also. Much, much more info located throughout the forum, such as you K&N, exhaust upgrades, etc...
