Well after much debate and searching on here and and searching some more, calling tire shops, finally pulled the trigger on some Nitto Terra Grapplers in a 275/65/20. Ive always been a BFG fanboy (4 sets of KOs) and when i bought this truck it had 325/60R20 BFGs on it. They are entirely too big for the truck without aftermarket wheels and smack the UCA and frame.

So after looking and looking and ALMOST pulling the trigger on some 305/55/20s, I read they they do rub, I just didnt want any more rubbing! Then i read about a few guys putting some 275/65/20s on which are the equiv of a 34"X11" tire. and right now I have basically a 35.5" x 13" tire. Not to mention they are cheaper! I was super excited when every review said they didnt rub. This is my first set of Nittos, I hope they dont let me down :/ I sure hope they are right, they go on tomorrow on this truck

 

Cool! I didn't think 305's rubbed. I love the terra grapplers though!

 

according to this guy they do and I have those exact wheels

and here are some of the size im getting. I think they fit truck better because they are less wide and taller



See how they look better than a 305?

 

You'll love the Grapplers. Mine have 20k on them, if not more, and they look like brand new tires.

 

I knew you would chime in, im sure ill like em!

 

The rims you have remind me of star wars. The empire logo.

 

Love my Nito tires, have a summer set of trail grapplers 295/70/17 on incubus crawlers and a winter set on aluminum cheapies, the terra grapplers 285/70/17 took two trips to the shop before they got them balanced right the trail grapplers have a lot of meat on them.

 

Yes they do dont they haha. Nice move man! I got a buddy with nittos they seem to be nice tires.

 

those are some of the best tires out there!

 

ill be the first to say it. boooo. not on the tires. although i would have gotten the trail grapplers. but, i like the looks of the two bigger sizes better. i would have at least gone with the size on the white crew cab. but thats just me.

 

Here is one pic closeup, ill get a full truck shot after work!



No rubbing AT ALL at full steering tilt. I am so happy with my purchase

 

waiting.....

 

A full truck shot, imma try to get some better pics

 

Lookin good!

 

That tire size looks soooo much better

 

Looks good Scotty!

 

very nice!

 

Dang scott.....i got some catching up to do around here....nice truck and tires look awsome!

 

Lol id say!! Ueah i had to sell the ranger cause our first child is on the way (due this week :D) and we need to have two vehicles that could haul the baby safely (back seat). So i bought a Maroon 04 SuperCrew. Was unhaopy with the truck so I sold it, made $1600 bucks on it. Then found this beauty on f150online for $15000 and picked her up with 73k miles (dealerships wanted 18-20k for the same truck). Had to replace a few tbings, but she is soooo nice. Same gas mileage as ranger, more room, more towing, etc!!!

 

Sweet deal man and congrats on the baby! Glad to hear you and sarah are doing well. Im rangerless at the moment....looking around and not gonna jump on the first ranger. Im currently driving a 4 door escort 97. Fits the kids good and 38 mpgs.....lol. gonna get back into another sweet ranger and found a few stock short bus's (og's here know what that is...so idk i may resurrect that again..but we'll see

 

Lol, my wife had a 97 escort! but for some reason it wasnt getting that mileage! Yeah I remember the short bus! I would love to see you in another 06-07 Level II.

 

Tires look good Scott!

 

thanks! they feel way better and its soooo nice being able to turn and also go down the highway without whole truck shaking at 65-70 mph

 

Tires look great! They are definitely underrated in my opinion, I really like them.
