I'm about to order some tire's and I found this page but I'm a bit confused about the "Lift Height" column. what does it mean by 2", 4", and 6"? Is this variations in factory ride height? I have a '96 B2300 2wd and I'm trying to find what size tire's I can fit. If i have 6" "Life Height" I could fit 33's no problem, but if I had 2" "Lift Height" I would need a body lift and trimmed fenders.

If "Lift Height" refers to aftermarket suspension lifts, then is there a page that shows max. tire fitment for nonlifted rangers?

Thanks in advance.

Lift height definitely means aftermarket suspension modifications (ie 2" over stock height, 6" over stock height, etc)... There is a thread in the wheel and tire section that has a chart... Go check it out...
 
I have a '96 2wd Mazda B2300 with 6" of lift 31's fit fine.... 33's shouldn't be an issue...

With a stock height 2wd, I doubt you could go much beyond a 235/75r15 or 30x9.5r15. I'll swap my Explorer wheels over to the Ranger sometime soon to see how they do, but that's as big as I'd consider without raising things up.
 
I ran 29.4's on a stock height 2wd... It would scrub inner fenders when wheeling real hard... I wouldnt go any bigger then that.
 
Reason I ask is I can get a hold of some 31/10.5/15's for a really good deal and I'd love for them to fit.

So according to the tire fitment page if I do the cheap hardware spacer lift I should be able to run 31's no problem?

The Front is the only place that 31's should have fitment issue's right? 31's should be fine in the back without a block or shakle kit right? So I can level it out and throw 31's and be good?
 
2" of lift you can fit 31x10.5's on a 2wd. I'd recommend atleast 2" SkyJacker coils to get the lift. The daystar like spacers fall apart after a while. If you can, go for the 4" suspension lift.

What about the stacked washer spacers? I wouldn't trust urethane under a coil but I don't see much trouble with an extended stud and stacked washers. I don't plan on wheeling very hard with this setup, it would be mostly temporary to fit the wheels/tires until I can get an extended beam setup.
 
stacked washers with the stud most likely will be fine... I'd atleast tack them together with a welder...
 
I fit 31s on my 97 with no lift. I only rubbed at full turn. It really depends on your front springs and how much they have sagged. I would do the washer idea or by lift coils, then no doubt you can clear them.
 
I've got 30" tires on my 2WD. However, I have a 12mm offset added to my aftermarket wheels. The only time I scrubbed was when I was making a turn and hit a bump. Otherwise I haven't had any other problems.
 
31x11.5 willlll fit... I had to pull the bumper... Only scrubs when you try to move...

I'm looking at a set of 31/10.5/15's. You think the 1 inch less width will make a difference?

As for the bumper. I have a sawsall and I'm not afraid to use it :D
