What is the biggest tire size I can put on a '10 Liberty without a lift kit?

if your not modding anything at all and you have stock wheels 255/70/16 is a 30.1 inch tire... it will give you minor rubbing, then your next step down is a 235/75/16 which is like 29.9 diameter, then next step down is a 245/70/16 which is 29.5" diameter ( and in my opinion your best option) ...

I'd say give the tire section of the forum a glance. You'll find lots of reviews (and perhaps some deals?). Tires, Tyres, Meats, Donuts, and Wheels

Personally I'm looking at Treadwrights for when I get back. Good reviews from people that are running them, and it's sort of local for me.

My treadwrights were an absolute waste. The rubber compound was so soft that it made my Jeep sway really bad at speeds above 40. I drove them for about 3K miles and then replaced them. They've been sitting in my parents garage all rapped up.

Discounttiredirect.com is my choice. Free shipping no tax. My local tire shops prices are :dizzy:
