Alright, like the title says, I am wanting to pull the trigger on a set of new tires. The factory size tires that were on the B2 were so bald when I bought it, that I had to put a spare set of Mustang wheels and tires on there (Looks awful IMO). I can't really complain too much about a $400 B2 in great condition though. I plan on running the factory wheels (15x7 I believe), currently I have no body or suspension lift, and no fender trimming as well. I am piecing together my parts for a 4x4 swap and will be doing a lift with coil spacers and Explorer springs and/or shackles.
What will fit with no rubbing now? I'm pretty confident that a 30x9.50 R15 will fit now without any rubbing. I would like to go with 31x10.5 r 15 but I am thinking I will have issues now. I suppose I could do some fender trimming now to make them work until I go 4x4/lifted.
As far as tires go, I am looking at Firestone Destination M/T and BFG Mud Terrain KM2. Anyone have experience with these? Something else comparable I should look at?
Just wanted some of y'all's opinions before I make my first big investment on the Bronco. I am new to the 4x4 world, always been a Mustang guy.
