((((s * a) * 2) * 25.4) + r) = overall height

where
s = section width in mm
a = aspect ratio in percent
r = rim size in inches

Thats about as complecated as it gets, and that includes the conversion from mm to inch. Also, to convert section width to inches, just take (section width in mm * 25.4).

Thanks. I love the truck...unfortunately living in New England it is VERY rusted up.

Yeah, I bet..., I could kind of see that in one of the pix. The rear part of the frame under the bed looks a little wheathered. How many miles?

Sadly....I actually need a new filler neck right now. It only has 92k on it.

Ouch, that sucks. I'm in Kansas, so... not much rust (or anything for that matter). Mine has just shy of 150k on it, and its still in fairly good shape. It has its quirks, but it's been doing fine. Well good luck, and let me know if those tires/wheels fit. (I know they will, but let me know anyway)

^^^ can you read it says they come with rims

Wow aren't you a dick.

Never missed something before? I'm sure you're perfect in every way.

they will fit fine they are a little taller shouldn't hurt your gas mileage

You're wrong, a$$hole.

Just a quick update. The size I was told was off from what the tires really are. They are actually 265/75/r15. I was able to try one on and it seems to fit fine. The best part is...they came with nice rims. I will post a pic once I get them on the Ranger. Thanks again!

Here is a pic of the new rims and tires. The tires still have the little nubby things on them. I'm pretty happy with them. Now, I gotta sell my old rims and get me some new crome lugs. Does anyone know it I can put different centers on these?

Looks good!
