    Hello everyone. I am planning on purchasing a latitude in may or june, and am trying to figure out a tire to replace the OEM ones. I used to have a jeep liberty and used Goodyear Wrangler M/T's ( 225/75 R16) and I really liked the tire and it performed for what I needed for. Now my question for everyone, will it fit, and what would I need to do to make that size fit. I am looking at the following tires on Tire Rack..
    Firestone Destination M/T
    Road Venture MT KL71
    Geolandar M/T+

    Suggestions on which tire would would and fit, along with the options I would need to do.
    Thanks everyone, and I look forward to spending time with everyone on the forum :)

    Lift, spacers.

    Selling tires for the last decade, Id personally use Yokohama out of those options.

    Great, thanks for the info. the lift I was looking at was the ATP 2" lift. I have done lifts before, even on my old jeep liberty, so I understand t hat aspect. However I am clueless on spacers, ect. Can some one point me in the right direction for size, ect.

    Basically there are only a couple of spacer options. The 1" from a shop like Renegade Ready, which will leave the factory wheel bolts sticking out and preclude the use of a steel wheel (and your aluminum wheels need to have gaps in the backside of the hub to clear) or 1.25" that appear to be e-bay finds based on what our illustrious forum founder did on his red Trailhawk, that don't have the protrusion problem with the wheel bolts.
