unlifted youve got 225-75, 235-70, 235/75 and could probably jam some 245-70s in there if you pounded the pinch back

when i got mine it incorrectly had 255-70s on it, they rubbed pretty bad until i lifted and knocked the pinch weld down

For some reason my Liberty does not have 17" rims they are 16". Will 235/75 fit alright on the 16" rim?

Those are in reference to 16" the conversion to 17" for the same size is pretty simple, 235-75r16 and 235-70r17 are basically the same tire height/width wise just with a different wheel inside it.

First thing is measure
Middle of left front middle of the hub to bottom of the flare
NO ONE , no one at all can tell you that one size or another will fit
I had a 70,000 mile KJ pull into my shop and worn out 235-70-16s were rubbing the suspension was so bad
So before you do anything measure
