How much difference
I have a stock ranger 2003 xl 4x2. I would like to give it more clearance but not do suspension lift. How much height will 31’s add to my ranger. It’s currently running 225,75,R15. Will I get rubbing if I add the 31’s? Is this a bad idea? I also plan on doing a body lift eventually at least 3 inch. Would you do the body lift first? Thank you everyone |
Welcome to the forum
You must do body lift 1st 225,75,R15 is 28" diameter tire, you will get 1.5" more of ground clearance with 31" tire, 1/2 the difference in diameter |
Ron speaks the truth. If you don't want any problems from the bigger tire, lift it. But...from someone who couldn't wait to go 31s on my stock XLT, I had to trim both the bumper valance and the mudflap mount in the wheel well. They fit, but if I hit a good-sized bump while turning, I'll get a burp from the tread. ;) I'll post a pic in a few hours when I get home. |

I tried to keep it in-line with the bumper angle. Sanded the rough stuff and I was finished. I really dig how the tires fill the wells. |
