changing tire size

[jimimeg]

Hi all,

Found a great deal on some tires/wheels was wondering if i should run them.

My ranger currently runs 205/75 r14's.
I found a deal on 235/75 r15's.

can I run them safely?
will it change my speedo?
Will they fit?

Thanks for all your help!

How much clearence do you have now? in your wheel well...... I'm thinking it'll be around 2 inches difference in height, about the same on width. but I'm no tire-spert.

do you have them handy? I'd stick em up the the wheel well.


on the speedo........ I'm running 33's coming off 29's
and it changed it roughly 3mph

I am currently running 235/75/r15 on my 96 ranger that came with 225/70/r15 stock and i they will fit with no problems and i put half a ton of weight in the bed with no problems ....I was told that you can run 31" with a 4wd ranger but i am not sure on 2wd rangers but check the tech library for more info...
