ah he wins on clearance for the front bumper haha, thats my worry is the front bumper, but im going to see if i can get a test fit at this tire shop im good buddies with.

 

i think he sold it, i know it was on ebay a few times. i think he bought a g8 or some pontiac, that's what his sig says

 

Man, I need to dig up some old pics of my '89 Ranger! I had 38 **** Cepeks on that ride. 6" suspension with a 3" body lift. I sure do miss that truck!

 

i loved those rangers! a 6incher and 35's make those mothers HUGE! do find those pics

 

mine are also 36.4" tall... not not 38! lol i personally would get a body lift if yo want to run 38's.... or run a tire like mine if you are just looking for width.

 

im mainly looking for height, i just cant find a toyo that is 38X13.50XR20

 

eff, yours is just a street truck right? what wheels have you decided on? i think 38's with the hulks won't work they stick out alot, but heres a ghetto way to check. get tubing with a height of 1" and put it on the inner and outter and middle of the tire and tape them on. have someone turn the wheel and see what hits and where. do it to the front and rear of the tire.that should give you an idea if you can run 38's at all. i think a 15.50" wide tire would be to much, you might be able to use a 14.50 but i would stick with a 13.50. ask cowboyup (thinks thats her name) about her 6" and BL and ask her if she rubs at all and that might help you decide on a width to run.

 

Man that was way back! I didn't think he was ever gonna post pics of thatbumper. I thought he sold his truck and was gonna get some little sprts car or somethin?

 

if it was me id stick with a 37" tall tire, but try a test fit like you said to find out for sure

 

I dont think you will be able to fit them with being that wide. To me it would kinda seem like putting a 35 inch tire with aftermarket wide rims on a truck with a leveling kit. It will fit and you can turn some, but not much.

 

it possible i believe. may have to modify the inner fender and make push the front bumper outta an inch, but its doable IMO

 

i dont think it will rub as bad as some of you think it will. i ran the 37's with 6 inches of lift for a while without any problems. they rubbed but not to bad. Im going to get a test tire and try it out. ill think of something. this is good though because now i know i will be the only one running that tire size with this amount of lift =]

 

Ya you better hurry up and do it so you will be the first, because I'm getting rockstar 20s or Novakane 6s in black and then 38s this summer haha...But im glad you will test it out for me

 

you have an extra .5" on me. im only rockin 2" of crank from the coilovers.

i dont know exactly when i will get the tires. they are a pretty penny. i wish i would get the toyos with a 14.50 or a 13.50 width.

anyone know if they can find them?

 

this site im looking at says they have a 38x13.5x18 toyo mt
