i'm BACK! and needing some insight...

hey all, after not owning a ranger for a while I just bought a 2003 edge a couple weeks ago, i'm looking at putting some new rims and tires on, i've found a set but not 100% sure if they will fit or not... here they are, let me know pleeeease :) oh and its just a 2 wheel drive edge.. 3.0 5 spd.

ok well honestly the best bet would be to actually go and try them on. however from what i have learned 31's rub on a 2wd... but you have a edge so i think that makes you naturally higher. sounds like a ok deal. 2 tires are ok 2 are shot. so you would still have to buy 2 more tires.

check the bolt pattern, i know some jeep cherokees are 5x4.5 and some are 5x5.5( not sure on the years, his looks older so they should fit), best bet would be to ask the seller if can measure them for you. if the bolt pattens match, go for it. also ask about the offset on the rims. other then that it seems like a pretty good deal.

kinda long drive to london for some rims and tires though.... good luck!

London isn't so bad, I live in Collingwood now and the girlfriend will be down there next week for her big exam as well so she might be able to pick them up
