I've spent the last couple days searching through google and haven't come up with nearly anything that pleases me or makes sense. Most of those tire and wheel sites out there are just trying to get me to go to a 17" or 18" wheel and slap a really thin sidewall on it.


I would like to know what tires would fit well, but not bulge out alot on a 15x10" wheel? I found a 295/50/15 and I might go with it, but I'd like to have more options first. The one I found only came in one brand...

I admit I suck at searching for things like this...

I'm putting them on a lowered ranger...


I forgot to say that I need them to be a STREET tire, but with all season tread (or something close to it, I hate directional tread.)

Hmm... I'm wondering how good those Mastercrafts are?


I've always liked the Coopers. I may just go with them.

Is there any other tires that I could be missing out on?

1Badexplorer, could you get me a pic of those?


I am kinda set on that size too. It's an inch and a half bigger than stock, so it would give me that nice rake stance.

Heres some pics of mine with 275/60/15 on 8" wheels. I believe you could put them on 10" without alot of trouble. Note that mine is 4wd of course.

I've lowered my ranger 4/4". I know it will "fit" in the back, but I may want to raise the truck up a bit because I know it will stick out an inch or two as well as hit the metal fender part on hard bumps.


I'm looking forward to those pics!

Your backspacing looks pretty close to mine, but what is it exactly?


I know a 4" would be best, but mine are 3.25"



Btw, those look sick as hell! I also have the same tail lights. Mine are the Gunmetal/gold-ish colored ones.

What brand and model are they? I can look it up from that.


Also, what rims are you going to go with if you get rid of them?
