My idea of a Shelby Ranger if there would have been one.

Oh man! That's going to look sharp!

I do not believe I'm the only one thinking it... but I'll be the first to say it. TIRES, ASAP!

If you have them please give me the specs on those rear wheels. I know they are 17x10.5, what's the offset and backspacing on them?

I'm wanting to eventually run a 17x10 mounted to an explorer disk brake rear axle, all on my 86. Planning on 17x8 front and 17x10 rear Mach 1 wheels. They are the closest thing to the style I want. I'm going for this look (<< link), except slightly modernized and lowered in a SWB. That is the 84 in my sig that I wrecked. The wheels on that truck are 14" Magnum 500s. After having the wheels from my 99 on the same truck the same diameter tires, I will not go smaller than a 16. I've seen original style Magnums in a 16 but I don't think they look good that big, I love the 17" billet Magnums like AR has but I can't afford them. So far the 2003+ Mach 1 wheel is the closest thing that I've seen that I like, and since I can get the 17x8 as a take off I can afford them as well.

I'd love it if the 17x10 wheels would sit just like those do on your truck, I'd like the specs to compare if you don't mind.

My word chaps, doesn't that Ranger look positively spectacular? I say, indeed it does.

No kidding, an Englishman and an African-American fellow. Tops boys, tops.

No kidding, an Englishman and an African-American fellow walked into a bar. Tops boys, tops.

Sounds like the start of a good joke...

Flare your bedsides. I know you don't want to hear that but it will give you that little bit of clearance you need and you'll be good with a 45 series.
