I just now Ordered a set of 4 of these of http://www.TireRack.com

$600 + S/H + M/B.

These Primacy MX4Vs are the #1 rated tire Under the Gran Touring All-Season catagory. I was not seriously considering them before this evening because of the price.

Yes, you do have to pay shipping to an Installer and pay to have them mounted and balanced.

Nope but they are the wrong type of tire for your KK.They will make the handling scary at best at higher speeds as there not a SUV rated tire.

If you had a crv or rav4 they would be great,or any FWD car for that matter.

Katmandu,

For what it's worth, they will probably be better than the GY Fortera (sp?) that came with the jeep. I wanted Destination ATs for my 18 inch rims and the smallest size 18 inch tires from FS was 255/70/18. Gave me an excuse to do a 2.5 lift.

That's what I'm hoping for. My wife is tired of sliding on the wet roads while cornering with the Forteras.

I too wanted the Destination ATs real bad for this Liberty. We had them on our 2005 KJ and loved them. They went with trade when we bought this one. They were 16s.. this one has 18s.

Anyways, It's her Jeep and it will never be off-roaded (until it's handed down to me!), towing anything or loaded down with heavy cargo. It's main use in life will be her shopping around locally and short commute (20 mile both ways) vehicle and once a year 700 mile road trip. She only put 50,000 miles in (7) years on her KJ.

I'm hoping the Michelin will work out for her. They have the best rating on wet roads...

Had the same problem on wet roads with those forteras. Was really afraid of those darn cheapo tires. I'm now ridding with new Destination AT and have no regrets what so ever.

Good luck with the new tires!
