[OFC Ranger]

Why did you install wheel spacers?

So...does anyone think this has a chance in hell of working assuming 2.5" level and no cutting/removing... 20x9, +18mm offset wheel with a 265/60/20 tire.

After my 2.5” RC level, I managed to squeeze in some 275/70/17 General Grabber ATXs on +15mm offset Menace wheels without rubbing.

Very close to crash bars, so swapping in some ReadyLIFTs just to make sure.

Is that the Rough Country front shackle kit? Very very nice.

Thanks very much, it is the RC pierced nipple kit. It requires cutting the existing small rubber “mud guards” that fill the gap. I wish RC would have included a template for that but it’s still manageable.

I did the 2.5 level and went with 20’s with nitto ridge grapplers. Rides perfect, no mods or cutting needed

looking at the picture it looks like your front and rear intrusion bars have been removed

Ford Performance Fox 2.0 level kit with 265/70/R17 General GrabberATX no rubbing. Once I added the RTR rims in 0 offset and I did have slight rubbing, all I did was adjust the crash bars and I removed my air dam, no more rubbing. Drives great.

2” level with 275/65/R18 on mine. I’m not off-roading, therefore I didn’t cut or modify anything. If suspension articulation was a concern, I would encounter rubbing issues at full turn while in reverse. I have enough clearance right now for everyday driving and towing, with the 18X9 +18mm offset aftermarket wheels and nitto ridge grapplers. I installed the upper strut spacers in less than an hour, then brought the truck to a tire shoo for alignment. Hope this helps.

I apologize in advance because I know this has likely been asked a million times, but I didn't find many (and few recent) posts on the topic. I just bought a 2020 Ranger Lariat FX4. I have owned 4wd trucks before, but never did anything modification wise besides exhaust and don't have a ton of knowledge on the subject of suspension modifications. I am looking to add a 2.5" leveling kit (Rough Country probably) installed and to upsize the tires modestly. I would like to do the new tires at the same time to get the alignment worked out and be done with it all at once instead of adding them later. What is the biggest size people have been able to add without additional modifications? I really have no desire to do any cutting/trimming/removing of components on a brand new ride. I have the factory 18" wheels and will probably continue to use them. The truck is a daily driver and wont see any extreme trails or rocks. Snow and mud is likely the worst it will ever see. I was considering a 275/65R18 possibly as a new size. Does that seem reasonable? Thanks

How much was the RTR flares? It's currently sold out on their website, I do agree it looks nice.

I love this look. This is how I wish my truck came from the factory.

What tire brand is this?

I went with 295/70 18 had to remove crash bars, but that was not an issue for me. really made a huge difference in the look.

What brand of bumper is that? It is the tightest fit and best looking one I have seen. Do they have a winch mountable version available?

Thanks for the info, Now I need to decide if I really want a winch or not. That bumper fits the Ranger perfectly.

That front bumper is sweet. If you have a tow hitch you could always get a hitch mounted winch? For the amount of time they get used I'd go that route.
