What are the opinions of 215/75/15 fitting on a liberty with outback shocks/springs only?
Jan, yours appear to fit well in the arch (left to right). And as I don't have the extra lift, I was wondering if they would fit okay, obviously rubbing on full lock etc...

Mr Top Hat - approx. 1" (as if it had airbags and there were pumped up). The o/b shocks allow for a taller tyre over the liberty shocks, too.

I got a 2" lift with o/b struts with o/b trailing arm brackets and o/b xl king springs.

There is a slight rub on full lock on the lower control arm rear bush "the oil filled one", if you have forester wheels it won't rub there they have got a better offset than lib wheels.
