Fitment comes from each tire's manufactured size list, and the sizes are the ones drivers reported when they reviewed. Check the size, load index and speed rating on your own doorplate before buying - a size a previous owner ran is not always the size your car left the factory on.

What Jeep Grand Cherokee drivers say
The most recent owner reviews from this car, in their own words.
Just installed these tires. After installation, I noticed a significant imbalance above 110 km/h. I went to a service center, and they rebalanced them more carefully - the vibrations decreased but didn’t disappear completely. They are still noticeable.
The tires feel stiff compared to my winter Michelin and are also noisier. They transmit road imperfections more.
Based on my experience, I would classify these tires as economy class rather than premium, despite how the manufacturer positions them.

Great grip on road and on sand when deflating it exceeds my expectations by miles, the treads have been holding pattern nicely for the past 65,000miles 110,000km on and Offroad on my 2017 grand Cherokee 4X4, used it on rock, sand, liver crossing with sharp rocks and handles exceptionally well on sharp turns. I would be a bit skeptical regarding what roads does it job nicely, but it does tend to plane on wet roads so better slow down
These tires were on the vehicle when we bought it and were fairly new. We are dedicated Michelin and/or Nokian users for 20 years. I find these tires to be rough riding in comparison. They make me very uncomfortable driving on ice as the vehicle seems to be swaying and on the verge of losing control. For that reason alone I would not consider buying again.
Excellent on-road tire. Absolutely wonderful in that regard. Good grip, good handling, absolutely no noise even at highway speeds, good wet and dry performance. Snow performance is reasonable, good for an M+S tire, but certainly doesn't stand up to a 3PMSF tire. Ice performance is not good, but I've found it to still be controllable and do better than other all seasons I've used. Off road it leaves much to be desired: poor grip, poor handling, terrible in mud or sand, and not particularly comfortable; I wouldn't want to do anything worse than a dirt road or basic trail on these, and I'd worry about damaging them on rocks. Tread life has been excellent, as advertised and expected.
Decided to go with this tire because of the good reviews and the good price. I decided to get them to replace cheap chinese MT tires which were deadly in the rain, but now with the at52, the car handles great in all conditions including rain and some snow. Its a great all around tire with a great price but is a big on the stiffer side.
These tires should be taken off the market. Purchased new Jeep Cherokee Summit Reserve summer 2024. Followed the recommended oil change/tire rotation. The 17,000 mile oil change appointment found uneven wear on tires. Called Continental tire regarding issue- they said it was from over inflating tire and it was a Performance tire. I never added air lb pressure but no mileage warranty because bought new vehicle. Nobody wants to admit (Jeep/Continental) these are junk. Ive never had a tire howl or end it’s life this fast. I’ll never buy a new vehicle again without asking about tires and mileage warranty. Continental doesn’t stand behind its tires…
I drove this tire on a Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit WK2 3.0 Diesel. The tire was very good in dry conditions and okay in the wet. When driving through more water, like puddles, you could feel some resistance. Otherwise, it performed well. It was also satisfactory in light off-road conditions. The wear was pleasantly low as well. I would buy it again.
This tire performs well in dry conditions and also does well in the wet. Everything else is quite okay, too. However, I had issues with the lateral grip on snow — I was very disappointed in that regard. Because of this, I won’t be buying this tire again.
So far, these tyers have been awesome. I am impressed with the handling and steering response from a tyer of this size. My Jeep has 188k with all new suspension front and rear so we will see how long they last before I install on the wife's 19 Highlander. I will update in spring.
