Ford: P235/75R15 all season Unacceptable for 1997??
Hello, I am new to this place, has some great info.
Anyway, We got a 1997 XL super cab Ranger for our son a few months ago and it needs new tires. On it now are 265/75R15. All terrain. The sticker on the door list 265/75R15. Was thinking of going to a smaller 235/75R15 all season tire. Little if any off road driving, mainly driving to school.
I have called a couple Ford dealers and about 5 tire stores and get different answers as what to put on it. some say put what the sticker says and some same about any 15 inch tire, most online tire sites have P215/75R or P235/75R listed for tire options for this vehicle
I checked the owners manual and it says "all Season" tires are unacceptable. Only use "All Terrain" tires
I am pretty sure I see a lot of Rangers with All season tires on them. What is the reason they are Unacceptable? Are All season tires ok to use? Do any other year Ranger owners manuals say "All season" tires are unacceptable? Thanks for any help
