A little less than $1500 total from Discount Tire. Not too bad.
Not bad at all. As a matter of fact, that's great!

Drooling... it really does look great!

I've always had a liking for larger rims, but what I hate is people mount them on those rubber bands for tires. I know rubber isn't as pretty as a shiny rim, but I like looking at a little bit of rubber and I believe this is the perfect balance on the Liberty.

They make general grabbers for 18 but not for 17 ?

That looks good! :) Actually a bit too much like Benz, but still looks much better than I what I expected to see when I read the title of the topic.....

Silver tow hooks? :) nice.

Not bad at all!! The choice of tire helps keep the rugged appearance I think.

The ride is very good actually. I thought it would be a little stiffer with a 2" bigger rim, but I dont really notice any difference. The wider-than-stock grabbers make me feel more planted to the road and ride very smooth on the highway. I'm very happy with the ride.
I have not had it offroad yet, but I want to. Thats the main reason I got the grabbers. I am a full time student and dont have a lot of time, but this summer I going to try to go.
A bit like Benz, eh? Well I didnt have a whole lot of wheel choices since I wanted to keep the price down. I wanted 18s and I liked these the best. I wanted to keep the rugged look and these wheels have rivets which help and the grabbers definitely keep it rugged.
I saw the chrome tow hooks on ebay and couldn't pass them up. Some guy had them chromed at a bike shope then wrecked his Liberty and had to sell the brand new chromed hooks. I only paid $40 for them and he said the chroming cost him $100. I've never seen another Liberty with them, I love them!

Your wheels and tires look good. The chromed towhooks are unique, too.

Enjoy.

No offense or anything..but I think it has too much chrome. Wheels look awesome, but not a wheel you would take off-road, maybe for light wheelin'?

Well I'm definitely not adding anymore chrome, I got the grill before I knew I was getting chrome tow hooks, but I couldnt pass them up when I saw them. There's no way I'm doing heavy off roading, but I have to do at least some. I'm a rim guy and had to get some good looking ones. :)
