To save time, click-on "View Tires Sizes for Wrangler DuraTrac", you won't find the tire by imputing Jeep Liberty. :roll:

I bet s/he did. :lol:

So what did you think of the tires? At first look on that web site, they appear to be Goodyear's attempt to compete with BFG AT/KO's. Or are they actually a stronger tire?

I bet they are good ATs. Goodyears are nice tires IMO.

They looked pretty good in person,I was wondering why we had a set of them in our shop for like a week since I do work at Firestone,oddly I despise Firestone tires.

Nice... I like the new Goodyears. Price is not bad at all for a 245/75 R16 either. 169.10@ www.tire-easy.com.

Tell you what, buy a set of 31x10.5x15 or 33x12.5x15 and I'll pick them up and test them, and then ship them for free. That way you know they are good tires.

testing lasts for 30,000 miles

I’ve only had one set of Goodyear’s, and they were the Wrangler AT/S. They had a long lasting tread life, wore good, no flats, and an overall good A/T tire. My experience with Goodyear has been positive, but I sure like Michelins and Toyo’s. Although, I must say that the tire in question looks pretty good. :wink:

If you scroll down there is a picture of them mounted. The sidewall treatment is very aggressive looking, like a Swamper Trxus.

The side lugs also look to be much more aggressively spaced than BFG AT's. I'm sure they will be excellent snow tires. Curious to see how they do on the highway.
