Those look really nice. Better looking than the A/T2 although a bit heavier. Couple questions for you? Why did you go with the 255/75R17 instead of the 265/70R17? And how have they impacted your fuel mileage? Thanks!
I liked them because they were a little bit taller than then the 265’s. I was also concerned about going to a wider tire since there isn’t a lot of room without going to different offsets or spacers. As far as the mileage I haven’t seen a big change since these are not far off on weight from the factory tires. I also put a tune in at the same time frame so it’s been hard not to have my foot in the throttle. However I haven’t seen a difference in mileage.

I just installed the Destination X/T’s today. Went with 255/75/17 on the stock wheels and the Ford/Fox level kit. Plenty of room at the crash bars. I took it out to the desert for a quick test and no rub at all.

What is the tread width? For some reason 255's seem to vary more than other tires. Those look really good on your Ranger and not skinny like a lot of 255's do.

So as most know I have the Old Man EMU lift. Today I recently installed the Firestone Destination XT. Size you ask? 285/70-17. Wheels and spacers? Stock wheels and no spacers. Rubbing? Well on the street there is none. Offroad? Cant say yet but that will be tomorrow. Here they are!!!
