Should.. I had those on my libby with the 1.5in OME lift.. They did ok but did rub on the pinch seam, foglight door, and rear fenders. I have the cragars with 5" BS so that makes a difference. I sold them and bought some 245/70/16 tires to help with MPG and torque..

My Toyo 255/70/R16's fit great and look great... they only SLIGHTLY rub the inside of the front fender at full lock... can't hear it, but I can see where it grazes the fender. I would definitely recommend the size. I'm lifted about an inch and a half but I've heard of people doing it on stock suspension without any problems |

No way the 255/70/17 tires would fit on a stock libby. I had the General Grabbers which were fairly aggressive.. That may be why mine rubbed so bad..

I know of someone with 255/70/R16 REVOs on a stock suspension with very little rubbing, if any at all... I'll get some pictures of my Toyo Open Country AT's soon... I can tell you now though that I absolutely love them... looks and performance |
