I find your post inappropriate and not funny.
I joined this forum to learn about my Jeep, not be insulted by a someone who cohabits with swine.
Goodbye
Had some time this morning and went looking for the jack to acquaint myself with where and how it is mounted, so I did not have to learn this in the dark, by the side of the road. I am glad I did, as while I found the jack - I did NOT find the lug wrench and jack handle. The lug wrench is easily...
I may see if they fit my boat trailer. I think I have enough clearance for the 16s. The bolt pattern is correct, I just have to see if the backspacing interferes with the frame or springs.
I received my Hopkins #42475 harness from ETrailer yesterday and installed it this morning. No real hiccups. The one thing I want to know is if Jeep has a guy who goes around sharpening the edges of all sheet metal so no matter where you stick your hand it comes back bleeding.
What I did was googled Jeep Liberty with Crager Soft 8s and came up with

Look at the 4th and 5th picture down and the reduced clearance is evident.
As I said I will get a set of stock steels and have them powder coated.
I just went out and started the Liberty in the garage, turned the wheels lock to lock and looked at the clearance between the outer edge of the front of the tire and the front of the wheel arch and see where there might be a clearance issue. The picture that Tom posted shows what appears to be...
I absolutely believe this - if I didn't I wouldn't have asked here. I believe you are right, I just want to understand it.
I am just missing what part of the tire will rub on what part of the body.
I think I know what piece of information I am missing.
What part of the tire is going to rub what part of the vehicle?
The 2X4 reference made me wonder if I were to strap a 1.2" (the difference in the wheels) slat with the same length as the diameter of tire to the outside of the tire...
I see what you are saying but I am finding conflicting information.
In the picture below it clearly states that less backspace moves the wheel outward (left example) and more backspace moves the wheel inward (right example), which was my original understanding. I am not seeing how moving the...
This is where I went awry. A wheel with LESS backspacing, such as the Cragers with 4" instead of 5.5" will make the wheel stick farther IN not OUT. In which case, yes I see the problem.
So for a wider stance with the same width wheels I would need to find a wheel with MORE backspacing. Not...
To answer your last question = not likely.
I am confused. Why would moving a wheel OUT cause it to interfere with the inner fender well?
Am I incorrect that a 4" backspacing will make the wheel stick farther OUT than a 5.5" backspacing? Would not the inner surface of the wheel be farther...
I am in search of steel wheels for my 2003 Liberty Sport. I got the specs for stock wheels and am doing some comparisons. I found a Crager D342 with all the proper numbers - BUT - the backspacing is 4" rather than the stock 5.5".
As I understand backspacing, the Cragers would stick 1.5"...
I was hoping to find an similar but available model . I did find a Scan Gauge II and Scan Gauge E which is sort of similar. The II has 4 simultaneous functions like the Autel while the E has two. $170 & $100 respectively.
I was typing while others were posting. ooops
