Smile New Explorer Owner

Well I finally did it and bought my first Explorer (My first Ford for that matter!). I ended up getting a 1997 XLT 4x4 SOHC V6 with only 71000 on her. This truck is spotless and loaded with everything to boot. Thanks for all the input to questions I have asked in the past to finally get to this point. Hopefully I'll enjoy this purchase and experience with Ford.

Has there been any posts to what is the max sized tire (height and width) for the stock alloy rims?
