Why does everyone want to burn the tires down? just take them off and sell them cheap, there is aways someone looking for cheap used tires.

why??? do u have the same question i do about tires lol!!??

lol yeah pretty much, plus we almost got the same set up

 

[Ranger Sport Honduras]

yeah thats true!well lets see who can make this happen lol!!, i saw at cardomain a guy with a 97 2wd ranger with 15x7 rimes with 255/75 tires, it looks cool, maybe i can try that way, instead of lifting, but im not sure if they can fit without rubbing

This guy did it with no problems. He said the only rubbing was while making a hard U turn and hitting a pothole at the same time. Otherwise no rubbing at all. He provided pictures and they look really good.

just put some 31 10.5 15 tires on my stock 94 2wd yesterday. They rub when i've got the wheel fully locked. I think they are rubbing on the inner fender wells. i'm thinking a couple zipties will fix that.

pics? did you ever figure out if they were rubbing on the inside?

ya on the inside corner of the fender well, i lifted it up 2 inches, and the rub is less, but still there. i still havent got under there to try and pull it back, but i know it will be an easy fix.
if you want a picture of it now i'll go take one.

whenever you get the chance some pics would be good if you dont mind. thinking about getting 31s for my stock 93.

So the 94's have a slightly lower suspension than the current Ranger 4x2? The guy that I linked above said the rubbing on his was not a problem at all. Im surprised your still experiencing some rub even with a 2 inch lift.

 

[daniel3507]

i thought i had seen some people with them on stock 93-97 rangers and they had said they only rub at wheel lock. not so sure now

 

[Bryan22]

ya even at stock height it only rubbed when i had the steering wheel locked either way... or close to locked. i think the plastic fender well just kinda warped over time, because i can push it back about 3 inches, that's why i say, a zip tie will more than likely cure my problem. i'll go take some pictures right now.
-edit- here they are-

sorry for the crappy camera and dirty truck -edit-

 

[Dar70]

Yeah I think the 31's are ok even without the lift. Maybe I will put them on my Ranger this summer. Did you use spacers in the front????

 

[Bryan22]

ya i did.
