I have a few questions for you folks. This is going to be my set-up...Cragar Soft 8's (16x7/0 offset/4" B.S.) with General Grabber AT2's (245/70/16). I have no lift at the moment. Jeep in question is my '04 Liberty. Will this rub anywhere? I have Rustys .75" front spacer's and 4 rear upper isolator's coming for installation later (maybe sooner, who knows). Any info would be great. Wheels will be here next week. Lots of great info here, just could not find my exact set-up anywhere with feedback.

I had a bit of a rub at the pinch weld when I installed my tires of the same size. I also have the same exact wheels.

So any amount of lift is going to help a bit I'd venture to say.

Ah, the pinch weld...time to look for the instructions on that....or get off my butt and put the modest lift in. Thank you for your help!

I thought the 235/75/16 tires fit on a stock unlifted rig. Is it the aftermarket rims that make it rub? I plan on getting that size next month, but I don't want rubbing.

235/75/16 on the stock rims fit and do not rub on an unlifted KJ. It's when you put those tires on the aftermarket rims...
