I have a few questions about rims for rangers on the topic of backspacing and a stock suspension. I have a 2003 2wd with the four cylinder and coil suspension up front. I want to get the Crager soft eights in gloss black with a different backspacing. I want the rims to be stepped out a little to give the truck a wider stance and a meaner look. Can somebody tell me what they have been successful with and what your settings were. I appreciate all help with this topic and thank you in advance.

 

15x8? x10? 17x8? lifted? lowered?

You should have put this in wheels and rims forum.

 

we have moderators for a reason you don't have to do their job

plus the guy is new, this might be the first forum hes ever been on

 

well obviously they aren't here right now so i thought i would educate the new member by telling him that the first forum at the top of the page is not for everything

 

I am new to the forum idea, and now I understand and will caution myself before posting anything. I apologize and just wanted to pose a general question but I guess it came at more specific...consider the situation noted. I will repost the question in the specific forum for the question.

 

I moved it to the correct area. No need to create a new thread.

 

Thank you very much! I was going to do that later but since you did it for me that saved me time and effort! Thanks very much for your help.

 

Less backspacing will push your rims out farther, more backspacing will put your rims inward... I have 15x8's on mine, with 3.75 backspacing. Hope that helps :)

 

Yup, that basically covered what I needed to hear! Thanks for the info Ryan.

 

if you get the regular old cragers they will push out perfect. they usually run flush with the OE Ranger flares.
