15" wheels set up

well on my ranger sport 06 the stock wheel size is 16". I went to ORW today to kinda plan out what i was gunna do. My original plan was american racing 15x8 rims with 31x10.5x15 bfgoodrich tires. I think it would go perfect. BUT the guy reminded me that there is a chance that the 15" wheels wont fit around the brake calipers. Does anyone know if they will?

if they dont i have to go with 16x8 wheels that cost about the same, however when i bump up the tire size to a 265/75/16 (maybe 270/75/16) the price jumps a lot.


so main question.. will 15" wheels fit on my 2006 ranger sport 2wd with everything else stock.

15" wheels WILL fit perfectly fine on your truck......remember this, the FX4 Level II's come with 15" wheels.......

thanks, i wasnt sure though if the fx4 had different brakes... but that would be strange for a higher end truck to have smaller brakes.

good that saves me like 200 bucks.
