2000 4x4 Ranger Tire Size

[Howard98]

What size tires can fit on a stock 2000 4x4 Ranger. And what size lift would you need for 33's to fit?

 

[JohnnyO]

If you turn the torsion bars up to level, a 32x11.50-15, 265/75-16 will fit fine, or a narrow 33" like a 285/75-16 or 33x10.50-15. To fit a wider 33" like the common 33x12.50-15 you will need at least a 3" body lift (about $250 plus install) or a 4" Superlift suspension (about $1800 plus install).

Just happened to see you've got the 3.0L. You just may have to re-gear to start running them bigger tires, what gear you got now?

My truck is a 2 wheel drive. The 200 4x4 is a buddy of mines.

it probably has 4.10 gears but im not for sure on that

 

[JohnnyO]

Most 98+ 4x4 Rangers had 4.10 gears, but not all of them did. Some had 3.73's.

I think mostof them still came with 3.73's for the most part.... My 99 has 3.73's

 

[JohnnyO]

My 99 had 3.73's. My 02 had 4.10's. An Off-Road or FX4 would have 4.10's. Generally speaking, if it came factory equipped with 16" wheels it will have 4.10's. I have seen Rangers with 255/70-16 tires have 3.73 gears however. Except for FX4's, if it came with 15" wheels and 235/75-15 tires it's gonna have 3.73's. Just gotta check the axle tag for sure unless you have the original window sticker.

I also have a 2000 4x4. my keys are cranked all the way. can i really fit 32x11.5? ive been trying to find 31x11.5s but thats hard to find in a mt. I have a pretty big offset rim too. heeeeeelp

 

[JohnnyO]

With your aftermarket rims with less backspacing, yes 32x11.50's will fit. On stock rims the fronts will rub on the inside.

how posative are you that 32x11.5s would fit

 

[Whisky]

I have a 2001 and was running 32x11.50x15 with no lift and these were on a 15x8 rim. I wouldnt think there would be much difference from 2000 to 2001.

Very. If they are on an aftermarket 15x8 rim with 3.75" backspace and you have done a torsion twist. On the stock rims, with a torsion twist, they will rub a little on the inside at full lock but not badly.
