Hey I have a 93 ranger 4.0 4x4 5sp lifted 4inches up front with skyjacker 134s coils springs and drop shackles and a slightly bigger block in the rear. I was wondering what rims I would need for 33x12.50x15? I don't know much about offset. Or is it would be better to go with 32x11.50.... I have 31x10.50s on stock wheels and at full turns they just rub my oem radius arms. Thanks in advanced for all the help.

If you're rubbing with 10.50's I would stick with it. Unless you get bigger offset wheels that is

i wouldn't go wider unless your looking for that mall crawler look, just my opinion. do you even know if you can run 33s?

I'm only rubbing the 10.50s because of stock offset rims. There seems to be more than enough room for 33s in the wheel well. Thats not the problem. I just don't know what rims toget to offset the tire away from the radius arm. I wouldn't be interested in anything smaller than 11.50s wide. I also have a 2inch body lift I could throw on for more height.

you need a wider wheel with a relatively small offset. im running 33x12.5's on 15x10 wheels with a 3.5 BS, no rubbing at all. my 31x10.5's on stock wheels rubbed on the radius arms, but my 33's do not.

15x8" w/3.75" backspace is most popular for 12.50-wide tires on a wheeler/multipurpose rig.

15x10" w/4.5" backspace works well if you plan to be on the street a lot (little better treadwear evenness & handling, but bead-retention won't be as secure if you air down for offroad).
