Can I fit 265/75/16 General Red Letter Grabbers on my liberty with a 2" BDS lift kit? I haven't seen any with these tires.

Depending on the the stance, from researching day in and day out, you will need to pound the pinch weld at the back of the front fender wells, in some cases you will need to remold the front of the fender well ( a heat gun works well).

Rims will also make a differance, what rims are you running?
And last but not least, a front and rear gear swap to a 4:10 ratio is HIGHLY recommended. Without the gear swap your Jeep will become sluggish at best.

Just my .02 (from research):shrug:

Thanks for the advice. I was planning on using the stock rims if that is possible. If I can't run these tires I can always go down a size, I just think these would be awesome and I can get a really good deal on some.

Not even possible with a 2 inch lift, even pounding pinch weld etc you'll rub , plus like mentioned you'll need to re-gear. Thats another 1300-1500 parts and labor
Stick with a 245-75-16
I'm running 265-75s but have regeared to 4.10s and have over 4 inches of lift

Ok that sounds good. I'll stick with the smaller size. so 245/75/16 General Grabber AT2 is what I'll get. Will I still need a lift to get those tires to fit? If not I could save about $1000

I have 265/65/r16 nittos on stock rims and just the OME lift and with a little fender cuting. They only rub when turned all the way. I'd say have a tire shop try The trie size you want before making your decision. I tried 265/75 when i first had my lift and they rubbed a bit to much.
