Tire size
 

I have a set of 245/75/16 tires. I have a 02 ford ranger xlt extended cab 2 wheel drive short bed. Can I put them on without causing damage to my suspension or anything else. Thank you for your time

Those tires are 30.5" diameter, x 9.6" wide, thats right at the edge of 2002 2wd range, which is 30" x 9.5"

You should be OK, may need to trim front fenders, but a big maybe, not a for sure

No it won't hurt suspension

Thank you very much. There’s no rubbing at all. The truck drives pretty good with them. Thank you again.

Thanks for the update, it will help others make the bigger tire decision
