Default Will 245/75/16 fit on Ford Ranger Edge???

I'm trying to get my tires installed and I keep hearing from these technicians that a 245/75/16 tire may not fit on my 2005 Ford Ranger Edge. It's a 2WD and I cranked the T bars.

Will the tires fit??? Or are they giving me BS?

My edge came with 245's stock. But maybe it was just the 4wd's.

Either way should fit without a problem.

on my ranger theres a sticker on the inside of the gas door that says the tire size. my truck, 2002 4x4, is 245/75/16 standard. I see no reason why those wouldnt fit on a 2wd edge as they have the same suspension.

Drivers door.
Mine says 225/70/15

I have a friend who has a Tremor and her stock tires are 245/75/16

Also remember our beloved friend Pk9298 has that size.
It measures to 30.5x9.65x16

For the 4wd's. We lowly 2wd Edges got 15" wheels and 235/75/15 stock. At least that is what mine had on it.

If it helps at all. I have a 2001 XLT single cab steppy.

I have 245/75-16 and they fit perfectly fine!

Actually raised my truck up a little bit as well.

I could have gone bigger but being a little 4 banger this was the look I was going for.

I have 31s stock. I've heard people say they fit 32s stock but I haven't seen pictures and have doubts. But 245s will fit for sure.
