tires and lift kits??

alright first off I'm new, my name's mike

So my first question is what is the bigest size wheel and tire you can fit on the rangers

second is what is a good lift to start of with 2-4" and where are some good places that sell aftermarket parts for truck. (im just starting to work with trucks)

thanks, Mike

first off welcome to the site. how about some info on what kind of truck you have. since im assuming that you are a 4x4 a body lift is a 3" lift sold by http://www.summitracing.com.

chevy to ford, smart man!

just messing around.. that's the same truck i have.. you'll be pleased! good luck with the hunt

as for the question... body lift will give ya 3" of body lift.. if i remember correctly.. with a body lift, maybe a set of AAL's, that truck, and a t-bar crank, you'll be able to fit 35's.... someone will correct me if im wrong.
