Maximum Size for Spare Tire

[mrjofus]

What’s the largest tire size anyone has been able to hang on their non-Raptor Ranger?

Or more specifically has anyone fit a 33” diameter tire for their spare?

Thanks!

I want to know this too!
I get my truck in 2 weeks, I'll find out shortly after!
Gonna put a level kit on it and then the biggest tire size that fits in the spare tire well will go on all around!

I know you said non-Raptor, but I fit a 35” under my Raptor with zero modification. It should be the same amount of room under there for a non-Raptor, right? Not sure if the non-Raptor has dual exhaust, but the limiting factor for me was the hitch. Even though it’s sticking out of the bumper on all models, it’s still in the way underneath for anything larger than a 35. Curious what fits under a non-Raptor too!

I took a look under a Lariat FX4 and there is about 2 inches of space. Probably can fit a 275/70R17 32inch.

Thanks. I won’t go bigger than 33” on my Lariat so hopefully it’ll fit just fine.

Let me know if 33' fits.

The trailer plug in is in a different location for the Raptor I believe. Its less convenient but gives more room for a spare. Its also lower and people have hit them offroad.

Hope you can update the final size that can fit. My brother's new Lariat F4 should be available this week and he's looking to get a set of 5 tires including the spare to get ready for the year-end trip. We're done with the lift kit mod, 35" tires, gear wheels, and brake upgrade on the Tacoma and we got a week to prepare the Ranger.

I talked to a Ford aftermarket guy. We looked under a Lariat. Looks like a 275/70 will fit without a problem. My truck is scheduled to be here this week. I have a 2.5" level kit on the way and will be installed on the 9th if the truck gets here by then. I'll get tires shortly after (the next day if possible). Ill keep you updated!

I’m guessing I’m at least 2 months out from my truck coming in, but I’m planning on LT275/70R18s plus some 35mm offset wheels. Sounds like you’ll know before me

Which level kit did you go with?

Rough Country. 2.5"

Reviving an older thread. Was there any conclusion as to the largest tire to fit in the spare area(non-raptor) thus far? Stock tire is 31.1". Thanks!
