| Post subject: | General Grabbers |
i dont want to keeping pushing this subject, but I've been reading alot about these general grabbers at2's and i think i am going to buy them. i have been deciding as to what size i should go with. i have a stock 2003 liberty with 235/70/16. should i go with that size or should i go with 225/75SR16? i just dont know which one would fit better. i have no lift and i dont do alot of off roading, just the mudding. but i want to do more 
thanks for your help |

225-75X16 is 29.4 inches where the 235-70X16 is 29.1 so not much difference or the 245-70X16 is 29.6 , so I would go with a taller one even if itis only a 1/2 inch or so would just look better |

I love mine... 245/70r16. They are great in ice and snow and better on dry roads than my stock Wrangler ST's. |

30.5" and will not fit without a lift and trimming and pounding the pinch weld. you can go up to 30" unlifted, but still might get rub. |

MT will wear out TOOOOO quickly. isn't worth the time and money for me. that is why i wanted an AT tire. |

Mrneen, I have Grabbers and love them, that being said you may want to look at BFG TA KOs, or Bridgestone Dueler AT Revos. |
