We shall see how it goes, analysis paralysis on my part a bit but after reading and scouring through many of the you good folks, will put these on (17”/+30/8.5” wheels) with a set of Nokian 265/70 17’s.
Will post when done. Also planning a 1 1/2” level either before or shortly after.
Just finished getting the new wheels and tires installed. I will be doing a 1.5” level in a couple weeks.
Thanks! They are a cover from Amazon and actually don’t mention the Ranger fitment but for $20 I gave them a try, trimmed up with a carpet knife (a little long by 3/8”) and used black zip ties behind the existing rubber protection piece to tightly hold on. I’m up in Canada but here’s the link; I’m sure the .com site has even more.
May need some fender flares?Just finished getting the new wheels and tires installed. I will be doing a 1.5” level in a couple weeks.
I think it worked out not too bad. I’m pleased with the look and sizing. ??
Wheels & tires are: Replika (very similar to the Roush Bronco wheels but at a fraction cost) 17”x8.5” +30 and the Ford centre caps fit perfectly. The tires are the Nokian Outpost nAT’s 265/70 r17’s.
I dig the look. Can’t wait for the level and I still want a little rake for towing now and then.
cheers
Yes, up in the Midwest Canada (Winnipeg).. thanks on the wheels, I get plenty of looks and people asking me if they’re OEM lol. Even my son’s friends say not to do anything else the truck looks great lol.
Hello, after driving for a few months with this setup I’m comfortable without flares as the tread is in line with the OEM Ford mud-flaps. The sidewall pops out a bit but overall nothing gets thrown up on the truck. That said, I’m not hitting rough back country trails etc. I know the previous version Rangers you could get from Ford Performance a slight flare that not too bulky that has the matching grey colour but so far nothing for the current Rangers. Cheers!
