I bought a 97 Ranger a couple of weeks ago and i'm in the process of fixing it up. the guy i bought from put ford explorer wheels and tires on it and whenever I crank the wheel, say to paralell park, the two front wheels scrape on some part(i'm not sure at the moment what part) and the inside rim of the wheel is literally filing down. i'm trying to find some wheels and tires i can get for a modest price until i can get the money to upgrade. any ideas would be greatly appreciated. oh and forgive my naivety on rangers. my first vechile was a '90 ranger in highschool but i totaled it and have driven a car till now. hopefully through using this site i can learn more and more.

Welcome to the forum! There's a huge supply of aftermarket tires and wheels available, all depends on what you like. If you just want something simple, find some stock ranger wheels & tires.
