So... I know about the Max tire thread, but I don't really know much about tires/rims, hence I don't know what setup I've got now.
'03 4x4 Edge with 245/75/16 as stock tires.
Walmart has the GoodYear Wrangler Authority tires on sale:
265/75/16 for $166 each (normal price $196)
From the above quote, which setup do I have? 16x7? 16x8? 15x7? 15x8? I don't know what these numbers signify.
Thankz. :-)
I want to say 16x8.
16 is the size of the rim, 16 inches tall. 8 is the width of the rim.
the first number (245/265) is the radius of the tire. 265mm.
the second is the width in mm
third number is the rim size of the tire.
16 is the size of the rim, 16 inches tall. 8 is the width of the rim.
the first number (245/265) is the radius of the tire. 265mm.
the second is the width in mm
third number is the rim size of the tire.
Is this a proven statement? If so, I should have 16x7, correct?
In that case, the 265/75/16 should fit without a t-bar crank? But a t-bar crank will level it out anyway.

And that's why metric tire sizes are silly. Look at what I had to do to find the size of the tire...
OK heres a easy way to see it. Your an 03 and have 245/75/16 stock and are much higher than the new rangers that come with 255/?/16. They will fit fine. BTW Goodyear makes that tire for walmart so dont expect anything great

Nope. first number is width. second number is the sideweall expressed as a percentage of the width. (265/75/16.... side wall is 265*.75=198.75*2 (2 sidewalls) is 397.5 convert to inches, divide 397.5/25.4=15.6 + 16 (wheel size) = 31.6 inch diameter.
