2002 explorer XLT
I have just purchased a set of rims and tires for my O2 Ford Explorer XLT. They are 20’s and they have 275/30/20 tires on them. Was wondering if anyone has any idea if this is gonna look ok. Also, the new rims are deeper than the old ones and they come within 1/8 inch of the strut assembly. I was thinking about putting 2” spacer assembly on them to bring it out. Any input will be taken into consideration, thanks

The 2” spacers have a chance to wear out the wheel bearings faster most likely, also those new wheels only have a diameter or 26.5 while stock are 29.5 so your going to throw your speedo off

Thank you for that. Turns out they fit perfectly. I just mounted them and drove it about 100 miles. No issues. Now, I’m thinking I need to lower it. And btw I didn’t need spacers. The 30 profile is a little much I think so I either gotta lower the truck or buy a bigger profile. file:///var/mobile/Library/SMS/Attachments/9b/11/2A057895-5C7D-4669-8F9E-53F5A1B26205/IMG_4809.HEIC
