I know, I've done all the searches & I could spend hours finding what I need if I even find it.
I'm contemplating either a MT Classic Lock 16x10(5-4.5 bolt pattern)(4.5" backspacing) with the classic ring lock kit in black with a set of BF's T/A 265/75/16's which I believe since its under 32" tall they would fit with no Rubbing on my 05 FX4. But on the other hand do I just want to go for the gusto & do a M/T Classic Lock 15x10(5-4.5 Blot Pattern)(4 1/8" Back spacing) with the classic ring lock kit in black with a set of BF's T/A 33x10.5R15's..will these hit if I crank the TB 1" or should I go with a 32x11.50R15?

you dont want to run a 10" wide tire on a 10" wide rim.

run those tire sizes on 15x8 or 16x8

if you want a 10" wide rim run a 12.5" wide tire. but anyhting on a 10" wide rim will require lift, either a body lift or suspension lift.

you can run 265/76/16 on a stock wheel with no lift.

 

And don't get 4.5" rims. That is the stock backspacing. That ruins the whole reason for getting new rims and tires. Also don't buy a 10.5" tire to go on a 10", that is just plain retarded.

"Go for the gusto and get a 4 1/8" backspaced rim, whoa don't do it, lol.

If you want some rims, get them in 15x8's and get 3.75 backspacing. You can fit 33x12.50/15's on your truck stock.

Plus do a search on tire selection and wheel selection and you will find lots of answers.

 

Edit: Wrong thread I suck.

I will post something useful however since I can't seem to use the internet.

If you want to run the 33x10.5x15s a wheel with the same specifications as stock is required to keep them from rubbing off-road.

15x7 with 4.5” backspacing

Any less backspacing than that and the tires will rub the bedsides when flexed. It’s a good idea to do some trimming anyway. I have a couple nasty cuts on the rears from before I trimmed some sheet metal away behind the rear flare

 

OK, thanks guys. I did do a search & everyone has either a different year Ranger or is asking about a different size tire. Like I said I'm not a newbie to forums & know what the protocol is. Instead of me spending HOURS to find an answer its easier for YOU to just answer the question in the 2 minutes it takes. If thats a problem just don't answer.....
Looks like I'll go with a M/T Classic Lock 15x8 5-4 1/2" with a 3 5/16 back spacing running a BF T/A 33x12.5R15.

Thanks again guys

Hey I edited my post above to something usefull.

Honestly I wouldn't try to run the 33x12.5 without at least a body lift.

 

You can run a 33x12.50 without a bodylift, many people have.

The 05 suspension is the same as the 99-06 4wd suspension. 33's are 33's, if one companies 33's fit most other's will too. With the exception of some super swamper tires.

 

So would they fit on a 2wd edge with cranked bars

 

Yes. But don't plan on doing heavy offroading with them like that.

 

honistly get a 3" body lift and a set of 15x10 mickey tompson rims with a set of 33x12.5x15 tires.. here is bills truck with them. it COMPLETELY changed the look of the truck to better....just my suggestion...

 

Well, with all the $$ I've spent over the last month on the Truck & still have 2 $400 mods to do this week my funds have pretty much run out. I'll barely be able to get the tires & wheels much less any kind of lift....unless you want to contribute to my truck fund...
I am going with a M/T, just with the style that has the Ring so I can add a little black to the wheels.

OK, slight change in plans.....
I've been eyeing the Victory Nascar Haulers because of the fact they are black. Well...my downfall was when I walked into discount tires there they sat on the tires I wanted. So, I ordered a set of 16x8 5-114.3 -6GB wheels wearing a set of LT265/75R-16/D1 BFG-A-Terrain TA KO's.
I realize they aren't even 32's but close & maybe I won't have rubbing issues in any situation. Once I have a lift I'll kick it up to 33's but for now I hope I'll be ok.

16's are going to be couple hundred more when you go to upgrade to 33's.
