Hey 3rd generation Explorer guys, I have a 95 explorer E.D. edition with the 3rd generation wheels but not the tires. I would like to know if anyone knows the original factory OEM tire size. These wheels:

The wheels/tires like that I picked up on a deal were 235/70R16's from a 2003 Explorer.
 






Steve is correct!!!
 






Mine where also 235/70R16's but I went with 255/70R16's. Much better look and they wear great. My Michelin LTX M/S tires now have 71,000 miles and still look good.

Oh wow, the tires on my explorer now is 255/60R-16's. The factory size for my model year is 255/70R-16. Are my tires the result of why my SUV rides like a school Bus? Its so rough on the road. I'm going to try out both 235/70R-16 & 255/70R-16 to see the difference. Anyway, thanks guys. :)
