thanks for the free remote start you loser. next time dont rip people off and you wont lose paypal claims.

Thanks Kaz! And offtrac, if I DONT use a spacer, will the wheels still match up evenly front and rear in terms of being even with the space from the wheel wells?

That looks perfect. Will I need a spacer on the rear as well? I dont get how it looks even without one on the front.

Offtrac, can I get a few more pictures of your truck with the 35"s? I want to see how far the tire sticks out of the wheel well with no spacer if I go with that same backspacing and rim and tire size. Also, do you have any MT sound INSIDE the cabin with the windows up?

Man, I've had a hell of a time finding wheels that will work. So far, I've found: Ultra Crusher 17x9, with a 4.5" backspacing (too much?) Ultra Rogue 17x10, with 4.5" backspacing (too much?) I dont think either of those will work without spacers, so I also can use any of these...

Also, by using this website: https://www.rsracing.com/tech-wheel.html It looks like for a 9" wide wheel with a 4" backspace, i need a -25mm offset. Is that correct as well?

Ok. So if I get 17x9 wheels with a ~3.75-4.25 backspacing, I can fit 35x12.5x17 tires on them, and need NO spacers front or rear, correct?

Ok, so nevermind the spindle lift. and yes I am 4x4.

Thanks for your two guys' input. you are the true knowledge base of this forum. If I find a 17x9 wheel, with approx a 4" backspacing, would I only need a 1.5" spacer for the rear? Is there any way to avoid spacers all together?

Do you think I could fit 35x12.50x17 inch mud terrains on my edge 17x7.5 wheels I have now? I have 1" spacers on them as well. Or should I go to a wider wheel?

What is required to do a 3" spindle lift?

How do I calculate backspacing? is it based or wheels or tires?

Cool. Is there any way to run these wheels without spacers? Right now I have a 1" spacer for the edge wheels I have on the truck now, but thats because the edge wheels I have on it are a much higher offset. Are people using the spacers to clear the control arms? What is the factory offset for...

Also, does anyone know the ACTUAL offset of our 2002 Sport Trac 4x4? I cant find it ANYWHERE. I did find that 70.3 hub bore - same for mustang http://marksink.com/tire_wheel_offset/offset.html

I see the recommended rim width is 8.5"-11". Im planning on getting new 17x9s. Do you guys think ill need a spacer, or should I change the offset alittle bit? Also, can you help me find some pictures of STs with 35"s, 17"s, TT, Shackles, and a BL? I only found 4 so far.

Since I have shackles and TT, will I need to do any trimming for the 35s if I add a BL?

ordered 2 paint guns for a flat/matte dark gunmetal gray. ordered a 3" body lift, and some 35" mud grappler tires. more info to come ;-)

you loved purple headlights in your ranger, huh?

this belongs in the "get your roll on video" from 2000.

looks stupid either way. very ghetto/hood rich.

I have the solution - trade me your 2005 Sport Trac Adrenalin and you can have my 02 ST with the engine you requested.

so what did you end up doing?

Yeah, I got a replacement center console cover coming in. Looks like I'm going to be doing a Flat Satin Gunmetal paint job this spring. I painted my girlfriends Tiburon I rebuilt this sick color - called Carbon Metallic. I wanna do it, but satin/flat finish. Stay tuned.

Thanks. I used a 1" spacer to make up for the edge wheel offset. I used "Paint For Plastic", gloss black in color. Anyone have pictures of satin black vs flat black paint jobs? I diddnt know there was a difference.

Noticed the calipers were on their way out. So I replaced all those, and I did all 4 Gabriel Pro Guard shocks while I was at it: I've also got a OEM tonneau cover and bed extender now. And I'm thinking about spraying the truck Flat Black next spring.
