I had an older model Liberator and I didn't like how they rolled in the rain. I'd go with something else.

I know nothing about the Liberators but I've had two sets of uniroyal tiger paw gts. They were great tires for the money although my philosophy is to always buy the very best tires you can afford. My dad has always put the cheapest tires he can find on his vehicles and it's scary dangerous, esp. in the rain.

I was actually looking to replace my 31" duelers on my 94 pickup with those liberators since money is a little tight this year. I put 235/75/15 liberator a/t's on our old explorer over the summer and they have been great tires so far. Those 31's are $95 each at the local walmart....you just can't beat that price.

yea i know what happens when treads seperate it's happen once before on my wifes camry. but i mean i just got the runner and these tires are brand new so im gonna use them till i need new ones. i was just wondering how they did so that i can kinda get to know what the boundary is on them. im probably gonna end up getting some BFG A/T's or Maxxis Buckshots whenever these are done for.

My Dad's 90Somthing Old's Bravada has had those Liberator tires on it for I think over 50k miles, and they're fine... I don't like em, but they're a good tire.. Not really for offroading, or mud though..
