So here's the deal, Right now I have 31x10.5 inch tires with 15x8 allied datona wheels. I'm going to be needing new tires by the start of this summer, and I want to get bigger tires. I have F150 coils, and my truck sits up about 1.5-2'' higher than a stock 4x4 extended cab ranger with 31x10.5 tires. I am 100% sure I could fit 32x11.5 Mud terrains on there with minor or no rubbing at all, But I really want 33x12.5 tires. The problem is I'm doing this on a budget, and I really don't want to lift if I don't have too. Plus I like the short, stalky, aggresive look. I have seen some rangers on here that say they have about 2 inches of lift (similar to what I have) and they fit 33x12.s tires with only minor or no rubbing. I know the back tires would fit fine, I am just worried about the front.
Is it possible to fit coil spacers under the F150 coils just for a little bit more lift? What is the worst that could happen if I got the 33x12.5'' tires and there was rubbing?
Does anyone have pictures of a '93-'09 with 32x11.5 or 33x12.5 tires with no BL lift or suspension? I've only found one picture with those specs and it was a bad angle..
Any input helps.... Thanks.
Here is a semi recent picture taken about 7 months ago.. Looks the same only I took off that ugly tool box. I have a good amount of space in between the tires...
