Hello I have a 1996 Ford Ranger Splash

I currently have 29x8 in tires on 15 inch rims

I have a 3 inch body lift
And a 4 inch suspension Lfit

and am currently looking into getting 35x12.5 inch tires and of course buying new rims... However will i have a rubbing problem?

 

Depends on backspacing of rim if you will rub on the inside. 3-4 inch backspacing and you should be fine. With 7 inches of lift, I'd say you'll be alright running 35's. I'd be more concerned with re-gearing than rubbing. What gears do you have?

 

I have 3.73 Gear Ratio in the back

 

Yea, you're gonna have a noticeable decrease in power going from 29's to 35's w/ 3.73's. Ideally, I'd say you want AT LEAST 4.56... but 4.88's would be better. But re-gearing is a whole other issue. Good luck w/ the tires. You won't rub w/ that much lift.

 

Ok thanks ill deal with gear ratio after i just wanted to make sure that the Tires wouldnt rub but thanks for your advice

 

I got an 01 wit the same set up running 35 1250s on 15in rim and NO RUBBING AT ALL!

 

Pat much different buddy. you should be fine but do you have an auto or manual tranny?

 

Automatic
