I've got 265/75/16 BFG AT KO's on my Ranger on the stock wheels, and 31x10.50's on my Explorer on 15x8 Eagles. I'd like to swap the wheels/tires on the two, but not sure if I can fit the BFG's on the Explorer.
I've got a 1.5/1.75" lift on the Explorer (spacer/shackle lift) and I fit 31x10.50 ProComp MT's on 15x8 Eagles with some negative offset (3.625" backspacing I think? they stick out a bit) without any rubbing at all, even under full suspension flex. I'm wondering if I'll be able to fit the 265/75/16 BFG's on there at the current height. I know the early Explorers can fit 31x10.50's at stock height as long as they are on wheels with the stock offset, so I'm thinking that I should be able to fit the BFG's (almost a 32" tire, but not as wide as 32x11.50's) with 1.5" lift as long as it's on a rim with the stock offset. Anyone got any input? I'll probably get a chance to try out the fitment tomorrow or Wednesday, if so I'll test out the suspension good and take some pics to make sure I like them and that they'll fit. Thanks for any input...
