I ran 33x12.5 on my truck stock for awhile, but it rubbed. 32x11.5 will fit with no rubbing with a t-bar crank.

GUYS HE DOES NOT HAVE A NEWER T-BAR TRUCK look before you give advice that doesnt imply!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





ok now to answer your question I highly doupt it with out a Front Leveling block I am running a 32x10.5x16 on my truck and i know if i went to a 32x11.5x15 it would not fit and it would hit the fender. get a front leveling block and then MAYBE if you are running stock rims it should fit if you have a smaller BS wheel then no i highly doupt it..

That's what I thought. Since it was a 4x4 that either it would sit high enough to, or that it had tbars.

Sorry....

Roll guy I believe they will. My old boss had a 96 ranger 4x4 with wide 31s on his, and they fit fine. Try it, tires can always be taken back!

OH and for the ppl who don't pay attention in ranger class...

Pre- 98 equals ttb suspension. 2WD and 4WD alike, cept for ride height, which can vary a lot(you see tall old rangers drivin around and those tiny 2wd ones scrapin the ground)

Post 98 - all 4WD rangers are torsion bar suspension. 2wd rangers are uhh spring or coil over, can't remember the term, EXCEPT EDGE which have torsion bars.

yes it s a TTB or "I-beam" you could call it. the 4x4 arnt much taller then the 2wd trucks suprisingly the "lift" they have is just the tires for the front now the rears get blocks where 2wd get no blocks. been around and around with this on a few guys. for ****s and giggles when i was at the auto store i had them get a 4x4 shock and a 2wd shock off the shelf and guess what they are a SAME lenth from the front...odd yes i know and they mount in the same spot because 2wd or 4x4 uses the same radiis arm.

like i just sayed you acully suspension wise are not taller in the front. but do you have a pic of the truck I can tell right off what needs to be done on the older "i-beam" trucks just by looking at them...

Alright.. That's just not what he asked.. He asked "..does anyone run these stock?"

The answer would be no. The largest diameter tire you can get stock is 31". And I think the widest is the LII BFG's again, at 10.5".

O opps sorry. lol no they arent on and probably never will be because of the unexpected front end issues that cost me just over $500. So i will be buying some stockers with about 5k on them for cheap b4 winter and by summer i should have my truck paid off, body lift, and 33's. :)
