17" tire fit

This is for a standard Patriot and not lifted, correct?

 

This is for a standard Patriot and not lifted, correct?

What size are you talking about specifically? The 215/225's should not rub without the lift. I am using 225/60's and am fine. I am almost certain the 225/65's do not need lifting either.

As for the 235's I would prefer someone else answering on that one.

Looks like you took some time on this list!

Hate to be that guy but... will 235/70/17 tires fit on a 2010 Limited Pat with RRO lift and 1.25 spacers?

 

Regarding the 235/65 17:

It would be interesting to note what tires people have that rub, and what tires people have that don't rub.
In other words, is it the make of tire that causes it to rub?

 

Radar RXS9's in 235/65R17 with the lift, do in fact rub.

 

added two links to the above list...

 

Well I'm going to be getting some Yokohama Geolanders myself unless something better pops up. I got the stock Goodyears and at 38k they are just about shot. I hope these wear better and without the tire rub. Any update on the tire rub btw? how much has been taken off? 215/60/17's are now available....

EDIT: SCRATCH the Yoko Geolanders, at 190 a piece they can go f*** themselves.
EDIT again, Tire Rack has them for much cheaper, I may get Geolanders after all LOL

 

So, to recap, if you have a non-lifted Pat with 17" wheels, you should stick with 215/65/17 or 225/65/17 if you don't want any chance of rubbing. Correct?

Now to search for relatively aggressive looking tires that don't break my budget....

EDIT: I lied, Tony1911 did have some slight rubbing with the 225s... hmm... wait, with the lift? OK, now I am confused...

 

anyone have the Yoko geolander A/T's (225/65/17) on a non-lifted, non-4x4 patriot? I saw that the geolander's overall diameter is 29.6" which is quite a bit more than I expected.....I would hate to have to get something smaller because the OEM tires blow donkey balls, and the other alternatives in the same size suck

EDIT: NM, tirerack.com must be incorrect, Yoko's website sez it's 28.5

 

anyone have the Yoko geolander A/T's (225/65/17) on a non-lifted, non-4x4 patriot?

see post # 4 please. Sometimes I wonder why I bother.

<edit> OK, you're forgiven - you're looking for a 4X2, although that's the same as a 4X4 suspension wise.

 

I vaguely remember from another forum that it was a misprint. The correct diameter of the 225/65/17 should be 28.5". I would have bought those tires if I only had one set of wheels.

http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCalculator.asp

 

Yeah, 225/65 - 17 has a 28.5 inch overall diameter.

 

Ladies and Gents - It's all up there in post #5 and I add sizes as I see them discussed in various threads.

 

i saw it, just alarmed me to see tirerack.com's misprint on overall diameter. I doubled checked with yoko to make sure, my tires should be on this weekend :smiley_thumbs_up:

 

Just wondering what 17" sizes people have been able to fit without rubbing with the RRO lift installed?

 

How is this thread and the corresponding 16" thread not yet a sticky in the "Suspension and Tires" section?

 

because in the knowledge base, you don't need a bunch of stickies. the threads here are all important.

 

yeah, I've been reading different thread and everything seem to useful and important.

How is this thread and the corresponding 16" thread not yet a sticky in the "Suspension and Tires" section?

 

Knowledge Base in itself is considered a "sticky thread".

 

225/70/17 bfg at's fit...with minimal rub. being installed on my jeep with new mamba wheels soon...

 

I am new to this and a bit confused by the info here...so a few questions:

1. do the 225/70/17 BFG A/T tires fit without any lift?
2. what is the nature of the minimal rubbing on the BFG A/T?
3. do the 225/70/17 BFG A/T tires have raised white letters on both sides? (i want black)

Thanks for any help.

 

do the BFGs come in that size, as they don't look to here (in the UK) ?? http://www.bfgoodrich.co.uk/bfgoodrichuk/en/tyres/sizes/20080204175996.html

 

225/65/17 - installed and no rubbing

Yokohama Geolander A/T - S

 

anyone want to share the price they paid for the Geolander AT-S's? I was just quoted 1400 bucks for four, installed. Jeeeebas!

 

Yikes! $1400!? Are they using platinum wheel weights and golden wrenches? www.tirerack.com has the 225 and 235/65R17 for $118 and $116 respectively (yes, the 225 is $2 more). So a set of four would be $472 or less and with estimated Shipping Costs to ZIP Code V1M 0A1 @ $142, that comes to $614...not even half of your quote.

 

I haven't buy such expensive tires like that but I tried to google the price and I found this...

2500/- per tire for my older BS Dueler's which had run 5k.
Alignment and balancing free.

 

I was looking at the KO's at tirerack.com. $148 per.

search KO 225 70 17 and they will show...

forum won't let me post a link yet.

 

I updated the list (post #4) with a link to Cheropair's 225-70/17 BFG AT's.


btw - this thread isn't about where you bought them, complaining about how much they cost, or wondering who can do your alignment. Feel free to ask questions in the specific threads for each tire (see post #4 of this thread for links to all sizes). Thanks!

 

Hi

I am looking at purchasing some 235/60/17 4x4 tyres for my patriot has anyone got any experience of this size if they rub or not, my patriot is not lifted.

Thanks for any help

 

I am looking at the same size so I can upgrade my stock 215/60R-17 tires. Not a big fan of the Firestone Affinity tires in bad weather( i.e. winter ). What was Jeep thinking using a tire size that basically only has pasenger car tires available on a 4WD Jeep?

I have concerns about rubbing as well not because of the overall height but rather due to the section width of the tire. It is very close to the stock 215/65R-17 tires height wise but it is wider and I would hate to spend money on tires and have them rub on the suspension or hit in sharp turns.

I haven't seen anyone post they are running this size( lifted or not ). If anyone has this size could you let us know if there are any rub issues. This tire seems to be an ideal replacement tire for those who want a true light truck tire( AS or AT )as it is very close to the OE tire size( 215/65 = 28.00 235/60 = 28.10 ) and won't screw up the speedo much at all( @ 60 MPH on speedo actual speed 215/65 = 60 MPH 235/60 = 59.7 MPH ). MY only concern is the section width possibly being an issue if the OE tires are maxing out the available space( 215/65 = 8.46 235/60 = 9.25 ).

It never even crossed my mind that the tires would be such an issue due to the oddball size used on a 4WD suv. I want to run Firestone Destinatio LE all seasons as they are excellent tires. They come in 235/60R-17 but not in either of the 2 OE sizes.

 

well, there are a couple threads to 235/65/17's - your 235/60 will just be slightly smaller (lower profile) 60 vs. 65 is the aspect ratio of the tire.
