People need help) I was looking for rims and tyres for Siberian winter :mrgreen: on Liberty 2011. I already have one on car when i bought it 245/50 R20 but new tyres cost too much on them. 170$ or more) for one. I desided to find stock. I already bought rims 7J R17 PCD 5*114,3 Dia 73.1, but didnt find normal tyres. Book says that 235/65 R17 fits, but this type of measure i found korean Khumo, and ours Kama Viatti, but i think in our winters - 45 i need something specific smooth Japan Blizzak DMZ(V). Cause others will freeze and wont stop vehicle on ice. But the problem is in their size its 245/70 R 17 will they fit????? I found topics were people posted photos. But i don't know whetere there weres a body lift or not?) I didn't have any and think that it wont be easy find it here cause we have everything only on Japan cars or ours)

If it is a spacer style lift send it back now and do a full spring lift
The sizes you are looking for are odd ball sizes really , and so now what size are you wanting
We have no clue as what is available to you over there as far as brands etc

Yes, a spacer style lift, a full spring lift will cost too much to me because of its weight and shipping to Russian Federation))
I know spacer lift is harmful to iron elements of carcass. But its only 2" not more. I choose smallest.
Such tuning would have meaning if i would travel to USA and prepare car there and send back home))

We also have many 31 tyres 265/70 R16/17 cause there are many TLC 100 in town
Will such tyres fit with 2'' lift

I also see Daystar face lift in cooperative album, i saw it in ebay it is also a spacer lift)) with many unnessecary parts) such as rubbers on shock absorbers etc)

I bought Blizzak DMV(z) 245/70 R17 7j R17 5*114,3 ET40 but they are very tight in arcs so i purchased 2' front rear lift on ebay.

Manufactorer says that it should be 235/65 R17 but Jeep seems like a bicycle on them))) Jeep must have 31' or 33' wheels :D Like my mitsubishi pajero terminator 1999 i made lift with hard polyester collars 2 inches levelling. and used common ironware

It seems you have the same fun in Alaska as we in Siberia))) I saw many crashes on TV when Trucks use summer tyres and the temperature suddenly falls below zero. And truck become a train whithout brakes
Thats why i do not use Korean or Chinesse tyres the rubber freezes and become like a stone. Only Japan they do smooth winter tyres
