I have a 1995 2wd 2.3 ranger. STOCK suspension, what is the biggest tire i can fit without having to do a leveling kit or body lift? Im just looking to fill in my wheel wells a little more

31'' tires should fit. my next tires are going to be 31'' and from what i have heard they should fit but will most likely rub only at full wheel lock. you might need new gears though with a 2.3
 
biggest as in tallest, widest, as tall and wide as possible, ect...???
 
i wouldn't go bigger than 31x10.5 and you'll probably still rub a bit then. my stock 2wd 2.3 rubbed ever so slightly with 235/75 r15 tires.
 
sorry yeaa i meant tallest. I dont want to do any gear changes, i have a race car to work on lol I wouldnt mind changing the gears in my nova but not my truck. Just want some to fill in a little mroe thanks

thats about a 31x10.5 but its a 16 inch tire. if you have a stock 15 inch rim it wont work.

i have 30x9.5 pro comps closer to 29.5" they dont rub at all on my 03. 31's rub at full lock on my truck. its hard to compare to yours because your truck is older and hard to determine how much the suspension is sagging. if its sagging the 30x9.50's i have will rub on full lock turns.

235/75/15 may work with slight rub. go to the local offroad shop and try different tires on the driver side front.

I have 29x10.5 on my 95. They rub at full steering lock. I have new coils up front too so it isn't from sagging with age. I like how they fill the wheelwell and they changed the whole look of the truck from the stock 195/75/14 LOL

yeaa i have the stock chrome rimss off a 98. My buddy gave them to me for free with the tires about a year ago and its about that time to change the tires lol but the ones i asked about are a wheel/tire set i just wanted to know if they will fit. thanks for all who are replying
 
235/75R15's are as big as you wanna go. Even a 30x9.50 will rub unless you install new springs. My splash has those and I tried to fit 30x9.50's and they rubbed bad!
 
my stock 2wd reg cab 1997 (same setup as yours) has 30x9.50s are stock wrangler wheels (very narrow) and they hardly rub and full lock
 
im runnin stock front suspension and lower rear(removed a leaf) with 30/9.5 bfg all terrains.. they dont rub at all what so ever.. however im running aftermarket 15/7" aluminum rims that have a lil less backspacing than stock.

depending on the rear end gears ur truck came with, u will most likely want to go lower if u go 30" or bigger.
my truck came with 3.73 gears and i recently switched to 4.56 gears.. couldnt be happier
 
tires

31x12.50 all day. rub slightly at full left tilt no problems
