Truxxx lift, stock wheels, 32" tires

[kmonty03]

Hey everyone. I'm new on here. Finally got a chance to play with the Explorer. Truxxx lift is being put on as soon as I find the time. I'm debating tires and spacers. I keep telling myself no on the spacers, but the lift is going to narrow the stance slightly and the wheels already sit far enough under the fenders. Wider just has a better look. Don't have the coin for wheels. I'm between 255/70/18, 265/70 18, 275/65/18. Just kind of looking for some updated info, problems, suggestions. As a ford technician all I see is the broken stuff. Thanks in advance.

Good looking rig! Have you had any issues out of the spacers? How long have you had them on. I'm paranoid because I have 4 children and really don't want a wheel coming off on a family trip. What kind of spacers are they? Ive just heard too many horror stories.Also do you do much wheeling? Any tire rub issues? My explorer has a bad habit of going places we probably shouldn't be without a serious trail rig and winch lol. Are u fire dept? I like the lights. I volunteer for my hometown.

OP, are you the one who sent me the PM? Someone on here did asking about my trucks specs but I accidently deleted it.

Shoot me another.
