First Post and Question

Hello all, I have a 2000 ford ranger 2WD that I love and have just recently purchased a 3" body lift kit for it. I was wanting to know what the maximum size of tires and the exact size of tire I could put on these sets of rims ( with an acceptable amount of space so theirs no rubbing of the tire ).

rims 1 - Zinik Z12 Mazotti Black w/Mach Lip

rims 2 - NASCAR Bristol Chrome Plated

rims 3 - Avarus AV4 BMF w/Polished Stainless Lip

rims 4 - Zinik Z20 Violi Chrome Plated

ALSO which set of rims do you like the most?

And I was looking into off road rims and tires too... do you guys know of any rims ( in any size ) that are under $120 and would be suited for off roading? and last question i promise... do any of those rims I listed have enough strength to use off roading?

Thank you

Ultra Rogue Machined w/Black Accent

Yeh those are pretty sweet looking, and they had them in 15 and 16 inch rim sizes the one thing is you want to make sure what lug pattern and back spacing they make them in. The ranger has a 5 on 4.5 lug pattern.

And this link will help you out with backspacing

I like the rogues but as 4 wheeler I prefer black rims with bigger tires it has a meaner look.
