I guess in answer to your first question, it would depend on how much you're paying for them. That's a little less than half, so I wouldn't be paying more than 25% of the cost of the tire new.

Some later model Limited Cherokees came with 16" rims. Also, a lot of Grands had them. Just make sure the bolt pattern is 5x4.5, and you should be ok.

sounds good then but make sure you like them in person. 93-98 grand cherokees w/16s will bolt up. And like stated b4. Also i am 99% sure that libertys have 16s and 5x4.5 pattern as well.

well thanks for all the help but turns out the guy didnt know what he was selling. they were 315/70/16 or something like that. he thought the 315 meant 31.5 but what it actually meant was he had 35's and didnt know it. so i didnt buy
