we were talking about that truck, cept his is 15x8's on 4" backspacing...same as my black ones you got now.

on my 15x10s, I rubbed with 33's on just my susp lift...

I'll end up with ssr radials most likely...i've heard nothing but awesome about them. esp in fl mud.

youll be allright with some 37. im telling you if u dont buy the bigger tire your going to regret it. youll always want to go bigger. i wish i would have spent the little extra cash and got the 40 boggers instead of the 38.5. cause look at my truck now my tires are way too small.

oh dam, i did not know that.

ok, i'll be good to go...just gotta buy the tires sometime soon now.



37x12.5 SSR radials
37" Claws (if I can get a good price)
37" MT/R's

My preference in that order...any advice from anyone?

I really want the swampers bc they are just a badass tire...the claws are nice too though...

here is my old ranger 01 2WD EDGE fabtech spindles, body lift, t-bars, and a 5 inch block.. 38.5s with no rubbin in the front(have to trim fender flare slightly) 3.0 and 456 was not too bad, but 513s would have been perfect

I'm def running 37s.
