OME lift finally on

[futat2]

Well, I finally found time to install my OME lift. Overall I think it looks good. The tires are 265/70R17, rims are a -6 offset. Also Added the MBRP duel rear exhaust while I was down there. The full-size spare still fits in the stock location. It may even take a 275/70r17 but probably not any bigger.

Looing good. This give me a chance to ask about offset. What does a negative offset mean? What do offset numbers mean in general?
Thanks

Would love to know more about (How to) the lights you have in the stock rear bumper.

Not a fan of the wheel, but at least you have fender flares over the tires!!

Looks good! I can confirm a 285/75r17 will fit in the stock spare location.

With the stock exhaust, I figured it would, just wasn't sure with the dual rear exhaust.

That was very helpful, thanks! What's the factory offset of the Ranger?

Ya, I added them after the tires, when I realized they were just a little more than flush. As for the wheels, if we all like the same thing the world would be boring.

in easy terms, I just cut a hole in the bumper and added lights. all my wiring was already there since they were originally mounted where the exhaust tips are now. The lights themselves were the Baja Designs reverse light kit for the ranger. Then I ordered the plate to make them flush mount.

that could be. Didn't think about the dual exhaust.

I'll go up a size when I need new tires again. I got the lift after the tires. It wasn't my original plan.

A tire to consider when it comes time is the Firestone Destination XT. I had it in 285/70-17. Of course it is available in other sizes too. I also run it on my 1993 Pathfinder and I love them
