I want the same size tires but I do Not have the FX4 Package.....STX 4X4....Do think I would have a problem with clearance?

I cant say 100% but I do not see anything in the Fx4 package that changes ride height. I think the "off road tuned suspension" is basically just different shocks. I think you would be fine with them. The info below is from the 2020 Order Guide.

FX4 OFF-ROAD PACKAGE (914)

Availability: ● Opt. on XL Mid (101A) ● Opt. on XLT and Lariat Not available with: ● 4x2 or XL Base
Requires: ● 4x4 ● STX Appearance Package (76F) (101A only)

Includes:

● 4x4 “FX4 Off-Road” bodyside decal
● 17” Off-Road OWL Tires (TGT) ● 18” Off-Road OWL Tires (TFP)
● Electronic-Locking Rear Differential
● Exposed Steel bash plate
● Off-Road Screen in Cluster
● Off-Road tuned suspension
● Remove front air dam
● Skid Plates: fuel tank, transfer case and front differential
● Terrain Management System™
● Trail Control™ Optional Equipment:
● LT 265/65 R17 A/T OWL Tires (TEW)

I have 30mm offset 18x9 wheels, so pretty close to where you will be with the spacers and I am running 265/70/18 with the crash bars removed and no lift. I like the look of the taller tires.

And an alignment in a pear tree...

Rides/drives better than OE, looks great (in my humble and very biased opinion) and really ended up exactly how I wanted it. Absolutely no rubbing and required no spacers.

Orlando Tire and Wheel in Orlando, Florida (ask for Hector) did the work and did it well.

Thanks!

So apparently the two wheel drive Ranger will not take 265 / 70 / r17 BFG KO2'S without a leveling kit. They rub on the crash bars at half steering wheel rotation, so I will beginning that done next. Mayhem dual lug rims with -12 offset.
Edit- also had to get fabtech crash bars
