33's or 35's

ok i have already asked this before but im gonna get some new BFG A/T's this month since they have free shipping from 4 wheel parts but i cant decide if i want 33's or 35's... i would like 35's but im worried about rubbing since i only have a spindle lift and aal's with chevy shackles... i have no interest in getting a b/l ever since my truck is tall enough now

My vote is 33's. With 35's you'll most likely have some major rubbage problems.

33's look way better with that setup. 35's stuff the fender a little much for my taste.

Some people like the stuffed wheel wells but I like when there is some gap. Stick with 33's.

If you get at wheel/tire package... you need to visit tirepackage . com because they will be priced the best.

Really... even with the fender flares? I know on a flareside without the falres its do-able.

Still a 3" lift with 33s is the best looking ranger imo

Summit wouldn't price match tirepackage.com when I bought mine. I got mine when they were doing free high speed mounting/balancing, 100 instant rebate and free shipping with purchase of lifetime warranty. Summit wouldn't touch their price for all the same options. Also, tirepackage.com's lifetime warranty includes getting flat tires. I got one about a month ago and sent them the receipt, got a check back for 11.50 the next week. That's call service!

if you ever are going to do body lift or SaS you would already have the 35 and that would be nice

just a thought
