I have a 2003 ltd with the factory 17" rims. The truck is stock. I use it for work in the bush a lot and it has no clearance. Anyone know the largest tire I can squeeze on and how much clearance it would give me? My explorer is constanting dragging the suspension and drivetrain and I am going to have some damage soon. Thanks.
