I have an 04 Renegade with a 3" lift. Have thus far been running BFGs 235/70R/16 (bought them before the lift, and yes they look tiny now).
These tires have performed great for me and are now at the 20,000 mile mark. HOWEVER:
- experiencing uneven tire wear (excessive cupping) on the front tires (to the point that 2 dealers said it's next to impossible to align correctly), .... but alignment really not that bad, hardly noticeable drift.
- fair bit of road noise
Aside from these 2 factors I'm quite happy with the tires; great traction in dry, wet, snowy, muddy, and gravel conditions. A couple of sources told me that generally Liberties cause a little more than average cupping up front, don't if that's true but thought I would mention it.
Of course now with the lift I'm looking to go bigger. I'm pretty sure I can move up to a 265/75R/16 or 235/85R/16 (maybe some minor fender trimming required) ... going from 29.1" diameter to 31.8" or 32.1".
MY QUESTION is this. After reading peoples opinions on this forum and Tirerack's surveys I am torn between the TA-KOs and the REVOs. Anyone out there have experience with both... or even what are peoples general opinions on this comparison?
I would appreciate any input.
(Keep in mind. Bi-weekly offroading, Minnesota winters, highway commutes)
