...which is why i need advice from the experts on what tires i want. So generally i don't off road especially since the truck is on a 4x2 so though i grew up mostly in central florida i am not really much of a "good ol' boy" BUT i do go out to new smyrna beach a lot which for you none floridians is a beach with sugary sand that you are allowed to drive on, now i haven't gotten stuck yet BUT i have gotten close because it is such sugary sand, lol like to where i would almost consider paddle tires lol, but more than i drive in the sugary sand of florida i drive on our highways, so i need a tire that will still wear pretty well and have traction on asphalt during our summer thunderstorms.

As far as size i don't really have the money to lift my truck yet, but generally i like to look of minimal lift on big tires, so i looked at the tire size chart and that got me all excited BUT what i really need to know now is what tire i could really get ('00 xlt 4x2) i don't mind a little trimming so long as it is actually just a little.

 

oh and sorry about how long my post is, but i wanted you all to have full info when advising, sorry...

 

maybe a 32

im retarded

 

dont quote me but with a 2000 2wd XLT you could fit 30x10.5R15s on a stock suspension. As for which type of tire i recomend the BFgoodrich A/Ts

awesome on the road, great off the road(especially in the sand). Best all around tire evar

AGREED!
I have 2001 2WD XLT & have 31X10.5X15 BFG A/T's w/ stock hgt. susp. & I get some rub at full lock & when flexing. (I need a lift)

 

cool thanks i'll keep that all in mind, still have a couple months at least of tire wear, just wanted to know so i could start saving...

 

Hey which rims do you have also? And do you get rub when you turn and such? Or just off roading?

get some BFG A/T's in 31x10.5 size and you will be all set for what you want

 

31" Bfg At

 

hah well thank you RF for making me know way too much about rangers.


you'll be amazed at the difference when you get the BFGs put on, stupid stock tires suck offroading
