Hi I'm new to this site and it is my first post. I did soem research recently about adding larger tires to my 1997 Ford Ranger in hopes that my gas mileage might improve. Everywhere I looked i was told that 10.5 X 31 X 15 inch rubber would fit without hitting anywhere. The tires improved the gas mileage slightly but it also threw off my speedometer by 17 kmph.
I guess my information was wrong. I have two problems now. When I am turning the wheels to the full left or right they hit the front sway bar. As well they bottom out on the front inner fender wells. So I guess what I need to know is how do I fix the sway bar problem and how do I get the truck up high enough so it won't be bottoming out on the inner fender wells. Any help is appreciated thank you
