slapped a new set of tires on my new explorer! had to get rid of the dinky 235x75r15 stockers.

have a little bit of cali lean going on
ordered shackels for the back and they are in the mail. will throw an aal if i end up wanting a little more lift out of the rear.

decided on a set of 32x1150r15 BFG all terrains

 

nice!! looks good!

 

hell yea. now get some rims to match.

 

nice tires.. im going to get bfg's next time i put tires on my truck

 

Not bad. I bet the shackles will get you the height you want.

How does it get along with the tires. Should be running 3.73s on there, right? I felt like our 97 explorer 4.0L with 3.73s and auto was kind of a dog with 31s.

 

Looks good, once you get the back raised up a bit it will be much better

 

You know what sucks about that year Explorer, is the reflective brown window tint. Ours had that too so I never tinted the front windows.

 

Meaty! nice score man

 

Looks pretty good. Can't wait to see it leveled out.

 

Tires look good.

 

balllllin!

 

yup 3.73s but i have the 5.0. it still scoots pretty good. much faster than my ranger ever was. much much faster

 

i havent looked at it yet, but was planning on some tint in the near future. is it a film or is it made into the glass? i was just planning on slapping on some 5% all the way around. exhaust first though

 

Slam it, SC it, throw on some Saleens or Cobras, and have a badass lowered AWD Explorer.

 

The tint is part of the glass. Even with dark tint all around the rear is going to be reflective.

One day I want to pick up a regular cab 4x4 ranger and swap in a built 5.0L with the AWD transfer case, lower it a couple inches (2wd height) and put a nice quiet exhaust on it. It would make a fun daily driver.

 

damn that really lame. that just ruined my night. going to have to figure something out

 

Sorry to rain on your parade dude!

 

Nice i'm thinking about getting an explorer just like that here soon. goal is to crank the tbars some and throw some shackles on it and 32's and call it a day.

 

I've never seen an explorer on 32's, looks good man.

 

do it

thanks. i hadn't either

 

looks good. wayyyy better than the stock tires haha
