Got the 285/70-17 Goodyear Duratracs put on today.
Here it is sitting on stock suspension (NO level and NO wheel spacers)
Definitely WONT Fit w/o cutting/trimming the Crash bars. I plan to get the Readylift crash bars and have already ordered the 1" level and 1.5" wheel spacers (I want a little poke ?)

LOVE how it's turning out.

I like it the way it looks. I’m just not a fan of having tires sticking out throwing rocks all over the side of my truck. Just my 2 cents

Thanks. I edit them in Photoshop (just levels and vinette etc) I actually do it for a lot of Sportscar fanatics for posters etc.

I'd definitely rethink those spacers. You'll destroy your paint and other people's windshields with thrown rocks, while reducing stability.

Here's my Tremor wheels w/285/70 Nokian winters. One inch spacers correct scrub radius for a 32-34 inch tire and keep the tires in the arches.

If you have 1 inch spacers then I'm definitely gonna want the one and a half inch. I want more poke than what you were showing on your truck. please don't take offense , Different strokes for different folks.
Plus, I already have mudflaps coming and PPF film on my rockers to protect the paint from rocks

No offense of course, just understand that you're objectively reducing performance, creating additional wear, and ruining other driver's days by pursuing a look. And I'd argue that function is always coolest.

Automotive/Motorcycle people are by far the most selfish self-entitled group of enthusiasts on the face of the planet. Brotruckers probably take the cake out of the whole lot if speaking strictly on poke.

Ok, HAM operators probably take the crown overall, but still.

Them and Vietnam vets in regards to restaurant discounts.

Looks good ?! I think poke is a good way to get people off their phones while driving. A rock smashing their windshield will definitely get them looking up. ? (I'm kidding btw)

Even stock I felt the Ranger was a tad top heavy. A 4" wider stance will help stabilize it a bit more. (1.5" spacers plus .5 wider tires) if it turns out it's too much I will put on the ROUSH flares.
Plus these trucks are so narrow it looks like it's on stilts otherwise.

Yeah I get it. I definitely had to change my driving habits coming from a 2001 Subaru Impreza RS (best looking one ?). You're making the car payments so you should be able to do anything you want to it to make it your own.
