I went with the Revo. My wife still hauls scout troops in the Liberty
and when they get caught on the freeway in a frog strangeling downpour
I want her to have a fighting chance. As long as the Libby is hauling
other people's kids it will have new, stock size tires. Her Libby is
about to flip 60,000 miles and I will probablly put Wife into a
different car before long. Then I plan to put a Detroit locker in the
rear and a 1 1/2 inch budge boost and got to 33's. I will probablly
tear it up, but the kids will be out of the house by then and what else
is there to do with money...

One Real Nice Thing(tm) about the Liberty is that there are a zillion
of them out there so there will be parts around forever.

I believe the recommended tire for the 2 inch lift is a 31"

I just bought stock size Revo's a few weeks ago for my 00 WJ. Not a
moment too soon. A couple days later we got our first snow/ice storm of
the season. I had to TRY losing grip on uncleared streets in 2WD and
even then it was extremely briefly. In full-time 4WD (Selec-Trac) I
thought I was back on dry pavement. Rain didn't even phase them. They
also get much better dry traction than other tires I've had on this and
my old Tahoe.
