Hey Josh if you're getting 285/70 R 17 KO2's and I'm getting 285/65 R 18 KO2's with the Ford performance wheel's and comparing it on tire calculator it seems your tires are .1" taller. I don't know if I'm reading that right.
The FP rims are 17x8.5. Not an 18" rim like you mentioned above. A 65 sidewall on a 18" rim will be very close to a 70 sidewall on a 17" rim.

I had to go back to the Ford Page to reverify, but this is directly from Ford. It has it listed as "Wheels - 18" Black, Machine Faced, Set of 4"

Are we looking at the same wheels? So looking at that tire size and rim compared to Josh's it looks very similar, what would you say? Just hoping it will fit, tires are now over 1k and the rims are right there as well. 2K in investments and thats just a start LOL, actually now 2500 because of the Ranger Raptor Grille

So Have you found a Raptor grill that fits the US Ranger?

The wheels you linked aren't the same wheels I'm getting. I'm going for the 17" wheels that come on the Raptor.

Not sure if it fits yet, It's on the way, I took measurements of the grille and they're pretty close to the Ranger Raptor , I'm hoping it will, it will be one of my first mod's along with the wheels and tires, waiting for a 2-3" leveling kit as well from Fox if it ever comes out.

@j0shm1lls

When does your truck arrive? I'm thinking I'm needing 285/70r17 in KO2s or Duratracs but want you to be my guinea pig. There isn't a ton of room for clearance from the inside of the tire and wondering how it will all work.

Lol, well it's being built on Monday 1/28, hoping to have it by 2/15 but that's probably wishful thinking. I still don't have the wheels for the tires though, so I also need to wait for the Raptor Wheels to become available. #StillWaiting

The stock Ranger's wheels have a +55mm offset. Wonder if the Ranger Raptor's wheel has less offset?

As a FYI I reached out to Stage 3 that has Fox stuff for the overseas Ranger:

"Hello, I think it may work but hard to say 100% im sure Fox will be releasing fitment here shortly as soon as they do we will get everything updated. I would hold off for a minute till Fox releases something."

Yeah, there is less than a finger width between the stock 265/65's and spindle assembly, I don't think anything wider is going to fit. If you wanna run 285/70's I'm guessing you'll have to get a reduced offset rim. The raptors can get away with it since they have the flares. I also don't think the 285/70's are going to vertically unless you remove the front "wings". As it stand now (full disclosure I have not measured), it's probably about 1 inch clearance which would be 2" overall diameter, but that is static without cycling the suspension...

I've reached out to autocraze who do a lot of Ranger builds Down Under (Straya), hopefully they can shed some light on the stock offset for the Ranger Raptor.
