18 inch tire rec for 2011 KK

DLux · **Posted:** Mon Mar 03, 2014 10:25 am

My Liberty Limited currently has the stock P235/60R18 Goodyear Forteras with the 70th anniversary wheels. Two of the tires have slow leaks so looking for replacements. Everything on the Libby is still stock and is prob going to stay that way for a while (not having money stinks!) so I've got a couple of questions.
1. Tire size: I've heard +/- about the size of these tires. Would you recommend staying with the same size?
2. Brand: Not crazy about these Goodyears but when it bought her the tread was still too good for me to justify ditching them and buying new ones. Is there a different tire you would recommend moving to?

THANKS!

There are more types available for 16 rims. But why spend money on rims when there are good tires in 18's too. I'm one to stay stock size or very close to it. Again why lose performance or spend money to regear? I read an the Aussie forum that a lot of theirs are 18's. Might want to them check out.
When asking these types of questions you'll find others wanting to spend your money fast. Take your time and check out tires for yourself. You might not need what others have.

Thanks for the reply Cherrie.

anyone know anything about the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season? Discount is trying convince me to go with this tire over the Continental CrossContact LX20 or the Yokohama YK580. Really want the Dynapro ATM RF10 but can't find them in a 18 in Houston.....
Any advise would be welcomed!

There's one posted above;). The other option is get 16 inch rims.

Well, but that pirelli verde tyre is for touring I guess. Isn't it? It is not appropriate for offroad and I was looking for an AT/R typr tyre for 18 incs.

The wink means a joke.
Like I told the OP I got nothin, but bigger rims are popular so something must be out there.
