Default 14" wide
Anybody running 14" wide rims on their Rangers? I saw a guy running a 12" wide rim with only a 3" body so I partly assumed that with my 6" lift , the 14" wides would fit . Anyone feel like elaborating ?

That's a lot of wheel...what tires are you planning on running with those?

Still too many variables....

What is the backspacing of the wheels?
What is the height of the tires?

Even with this information - I doubt many will be able to help you. That's not a common combination to say the least.

If you're sure you want to run any type of "non-conventional" combination like this - you might want to invest in a simple "wheel & tire simulator tool". Cheap insurance & then you can figure it out on your own (Click): Percy Wheel and Tire Simulator


If you stick with this type of combination - You'll also be way outside of the maximum recommended / allowable wheel width for any tire in that width range.

Remember: Safety comes into play - for you and others.

Those 12.5"-13.5" wide tires are typically ran with nothing more than a 10" wide wheel.

I like it . I've seen other Rangers running it and all I care is if I like it or not . The backspacing would be 4". Tires sizes would be either 33x12.5x15 or 33x14.5x15

those tires would not fit anyway. And if they even did it would be beyond dangerous
