No Mounty no more.
If I run a 31x10.50x15 on my 97 Mountaineer will I have any clearence prblems. John Whitaker said he had some front fender well rub with 31s but other people don't. My Mountaineer has the 5.0 if this makes a difference. I have plenty of time to decide as which tire to use since the dealer had relaced the Fire Blowns with Good Years. Unfortunatly the Good Years are the ones typicly used on 2 wheel drive F-150s up to 1996.
Another concern I have with the 31s is that I have a class 3 reciever and it doesn't allow much clearence between it and the 235 75 15 spare.
