I wanted to know if it would be bad on my ranger to put 15x10 like with 32x11.5x15 tires. Does anyone know if my bearings will go out quicker? thanks.

 

i dont think they will go quicker. ive had 15x10 inch wheels on my ranger for 4 years. only went through a drivers side bearing. but thats with 118,xxx miles. so i doubt it was because of the rims.

 

It all depends on the offset of them. If they stick out way farther than they should then yes stuff will go bad quicker.

 

Ha. Im not for sure on the bearings, but I know that ball joints will go quicker. But dont let that slow you down. Its no biggie to change them.

 

I've had oversize tires, sticking out wheels on the truck since 40k and it's got 120k now. Any my stock bearings haven't made even a peep or growl. BJ's are a common thing on these trucks anyway. By 70k the stock uncranked ones are already toast.


In summary: extra wear will be minimal.




Then again..... we really got NOTHING to work with. Haven't a clue what these wheels are tires are going on....don't know your truck year, model, drivetrain....etc...blahblah. Please create a signature to help us HELP YOU!!
