What should I need.

[JwLiberty]

Ok. So I haven’t found any topic that covers exactly my situation.
I have some BF Goodrich 245/70/17 K02’s that are now on a Grand Cherokee, and are awesome tires.
I would like to put them on my 2012 Liberty.
First off, I know I have to buy new rims, as the bolt pattern is smaller on the Liberty.
But as far as any spacers, or what kind of lift I’d need to put on to avoid cutting, or at least minimize it greatly, I am lost.
If I could just do 2.5” in the front like a leveling lift, that would be great.
It’s not going to be for any major wheeling.

Yes to new WHEELs, rim is part of a wheel
at least 2.5 inches of lift with the right size wheel and backspacing
JUST SAY NO NO NO to any leveling or spacer lifts, bad ju ju
Plus it does not matter at all if you never drive off road into your lawn
Do it right with a full spring lift, OME springs. Bilstein shocks , Teraflex bumpstops in front / hockey pucks for rear bumpstops etc
Set you back about 900 or so but the only real way to do it right and have a good ride and last a long time
