Default Re: Tire replacement suggestions

At an NTB, I was told that there weren't many options in my stock size and they recommended 235's but not passenger grade as the manual recommends.
I like that site but it's left me more confused in several ways
I agree and I just went through this with my wife's Ford Edge. She has 17 inch tires compared to the Ranger's 15 inch. One idea is to find the tires you want and have them shipped to a store like NTB. Tire-Rack will ship anywhere and then you can have a shop mount and balance them or find a local tire shop based on recommendations. For street driving, I don't think it makes as big a difference because it is the thick tread you're after vs. tread and the tire being able to hold up to off-road abuse.
