So my friend gave me his Goodyear Wrangler HP 225/70R16 tires w/ 75% tread left on R16 gunmetal stock alluminun alloy jeep rims that were on his stock cherokee classic AND I also have Goodyear Integrity P235/70R16 tires w/ 80% tread left on R16 stock alluminum rims. My questions are....
1. Do you think the 225's are too small on my stock 02 Liberty?
2. Which tire do you think is better? ( i don't offroad, maybe a dirt trail here and there)
3. Should I swap the 235's on the gunmetal rims instead or just keep the 225's on there?

I'd appreciate input if you could please. Thanks!!

For free.... I'd Run em, but then again my wife and I both work two jobs to make ends meet, so my opinion is a little skewed.

I agree if your on a limited budget take advantage of a freebee, when you can afford some thingelse go for it but tires arn't cheap so take advantage of a situation and get a much use out of them as you can. when you can afford to play with different Mods enjoy the good life but till then go with the flow :)

The GoodYear HP's on my Jeep have around 26k on them and they are scary in the rain. Great dry traction though.

Taller and better...the 225/70/16's don't really have the correct "load rating"

yes the bolt pattern is the same. I think that i should put the 235's on the gunmetal 16" rims.
