Icon5 will they fit?

Will a 27x8.5r14 fit my stock ranger? pretty much sold on General Grabber AT2's. the tires that i have on now are 215x70r14 and i have alot of room for bigger tires, but are they too big?

your stock tires are 25.9 inces tall. so you should have no problems with a 27 inch tall tire.

oh yea, you should use the search function, but i did it for you.

stay away from steel wheels, they will kill your gas mileage.
