32x10.50 Tires

[BTRs X]

I am looking to lift my truck using the James Duff 2.5" lift and was looking at putting 32x10.50 tires on my American Racing Outlaw 1 15x7 wheels.

First:

Can I fit these 32s with the 2.5" lift?

Also, what brands/series of 32x10.50 tires are available (they seem to be rare)?

Thanks.

They should fit, but I think there is only 1 32x10.5 out there, and I believe its a super swamper.

Super Swamper Radial

Yep, it's the 32X11.5R15 Super Swamper Radial. When I first had my Rancho 2.5" lift installed, a 32" tire fit under the fenderwells just fine. You should have no problems fitting this tire under the wheel wells, and your Explorer will look ready for anything!

one question, can i run 32s with 3.55 gear? or is it too unbearable. or, shold i stay with 31s

It's a stretch

If you're driving an automatic, I wouldn't do it. The shift points will work against you. You won't know what 5th gear feels like. You might even burn up your perfectly good transmission!

I see no problem with it... it's not a massive tire change, and I've run both 33's and 35's with 3.73's and did fine... just a lil slow off the line
