will know to keep an eye and ear out for bearing wear/noise.

To tell the truth ...
I am not sure just yet. I went to the off road shop looking at lifts and
talked to the guys there who knows nearly NOTHING about Libbys, recommended
a 3" lift to my husband. A 3" is too much, 2.5 is the best bet at this point
according to my research. But then I went to the tire shop to look around
and a young fella there showed me some choices and took one out to look at
it next to the jeep. It looked a good size, but I was more interested in the
tread pattern at that time than the size. I want it to look nice sure, but I
also want the best grip for the least amount of noise and vibration that I
can get. I posted a thread about the two tires I was looking at but didn't
get anything back on it. Thought I would bug the guys n dolls in the KJ
forums and see what they have to say about their tires.
