Ok.. I'm new here and the whole reason why i got this was to get info on where to get the best tires. It's my boyfriend's birthday soon and he REALLY needs new tires! I mean, they're as bald as all hell!! Anyways, he has a Ranger XL 2wd. He's been wanting to lift it and a whole bunch of other things to it... the size tires he wants are 31x10.50 with 15" rims. Does anybody here recommend a place or somebody that's selling?? I need them new, not like new. I would appreciate it so much y'all! Thanks in advance!...

 

awww what a nice GF :)

BF-Goodrich All-Terrains from summitracing.com

I dunno about that size though since he is XL and doesn't have a lift yet?

 

if he doesnt have a lift yet he can only fit 30x9.5x15 BFGs on it right now, maybe a little bit bigger.

are you buying the lift too?

 

Work something out with other friends or Family to get him some or all of the lift because now is the perfect time.

you don't want to buy brand new tires and then lift only to need bigger tires.

I'd also recommend the BFG all / terrain's. There are alot of websites like Summit.com or Tirepackage.com That have great prices, but I'd reccomend printing out the best price you can find and taking it around to local shops and see if anyone can match or beat it

 

Thank y'all so much! Yea, he doesn't have a lift yet... :( But will a 2" lift do the job for 31's? He wants a 2" lift, but i don't know if i can afford one along with the tires. No one else could really help me out getting the lift either. Um... is there a place for cheap lifts? Well, not cheap quality, but price... is that a such thing when dealing with lifts or parts in general?... Sorry about all the questions! I'm just a little handicap when it comes to automotives, lol!

 

I copied and pasted this from another thread I made. its a three inch lift tho.

im not a 2wd guru, but you should beable to get some 2" coil spacers.

with 2" coil spacers 31s should fit np

 

Ok... i could get all that at that price ONLY if i could get tires at $300 for all 4!! Let's just put it this way... i have a total of $700 to spend on him. Is that possible at all?? :(

*crosses fingers*

 

he cant run them spindles. XL 2wd = coils = no torsion bars.

he needs a coil spacer and maybe an AAL or shackles in the rear

 

Zabeard...What will coil spacers do??

 

well you could do like $500 on tires and $200 on a body lift

 

Ah ok. Someone put a nice little lift kit package together for this girl then for the XL.

 

OMG!!! Can i just drop the hunk-a-junk off at one of y'all's houses and y'all can deal with it?? lol That would same me time and headaches!! And.. get me a good deal? lol i bet that won't be happening.

 

ok get these, for 2" in the front

now you will need the AAL like Matt posted

that is all under 200 so far

 

Haha!! Thanks Buzzair!! I swear to God... this boy is so spoiled and he doesn't know it yet... lol

 

Ok Zabeard... what about the back?? Can someone just list out what all i need? I'd really appreciate it guys. Remember, think inexpensive and under $700!! lol

 

no problem. My fiancee bought me my e-fan so I know he'll be a happy camper.

The AAL's or shackles take care of the rear. The coils are for the front

 

AAL's/shackles, coils, 2" lift, and tires...that's it? And it'll all be under $700, right? :)

 

ok this is what you should NEED

only thing i dont know is shocks, he will prolly need something, but he can get by with stock shocks

 

he wont need both the AAL and shackle since its just 2" he just need the AAL

 

Ok Zabeard, that's $639 right there. How much will suspensions cost?

 

Right. That's why i put a slash between them b/c i'd get one or the other. But i'd be better off with the AAl's than the shackles?

 

Your looking at 682.70 including shipping with all that.

 

dont forget to add shiping for tires unless u get them locally.

otherwise shocks will prolly be another 100, but its NOT needed

 

shackle only add an 1"

AAL is 2"
