So my ranger is in desparate need of new tires. The ranger currently has 14x6rims with 215/70R14 tires on them. The only thing is that I have a nice 3.73 31-spline 8.8 with a tight trac-loc sitting in my garage as well. The 14" ranger wheels do not fit on the 8.8 due to the center hole being too small. So I'm planning on getting a set of 15" tires installed on a really nice set of 15x7 jeep rims I have in my garage that will fit the 8.8, finally allowing me to install the 8.8 on the ranger.
I want to go with 205/75R15 tires but it seems like they might be a little too narrow for 7" wide rims. However, all the tire manufacturers list approved rim widths of 5-7" for that size tire. Has anyone tried this combo? How did they work and look?
