You need to trim the plastic wheel well insert at the bottom front and then pull it forward into the front bumper cover with a tie wrap. I've explained it more eloquently in other threads and you can find my write-up in the tire app notes thread if you're interested:

KJ: 2005 Renegade, Gas.
Tires: 265/75R16, Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo, LT (light truck) C, Costco, ~$150 ea
Wheels: 16" Stock Jeep Liberty Renegade
Lift: Frankenlift, claimed: 2.5", actual: 2.5", All J Products, ~$750
The larger tires will rub in three places in the front: the sway bar, the air dam/front of the wheel well, and the back of the wheel well. To stop the rubbing on the sway bar install some 1.25" wheel spacers (Spidertrax WHS-002). The stop the rubbing on the back of the wheel well, cut off the plastic pinch weld cover, hammer over the pinch weld, and then cover all of the bare metal with undercoating. To stop the rubbing on the front of the wheel well you'll need to devise some way to pull the front of the well forward into the front bumper. You'll also need to trim out some of the air dam where it rubs. This is all possible and still looks completely stock. You should only get slight rub when the wheels are turned to the extremes while going in reverse. As for the back tires, they fit fine, although they do stuff off road, not that it hurts anything other than flexing the flares. You'll probably also want to put the spacers on the rear wheels as well for symmetry (probably other reasons as well). The spacers are just the right size for my Renegade that the wheels don't project past the flares, so they don't throw road crap up on the car. I love these tires and they got me through the muck when MTRs were getting stuck
