2008 Ranger XLT tire size question

Hey y'all,
I very recently bought my first-ever truck in my name. Now I love it, and I'd love to put some new tires on it, but I'm not sure what would fit. They're stock wheels (LT 235/75 R15), and I was wondering if any bigger tires would fit or if I'm stuck with this size until I buy new wheels?

Any thoughts or opinions would be very appreciated, thanks!

I have a 2002 RWD and 235 is the biggest tire I can put on front the rear I run 30s. The rear has a lot more fender clearance.

Are you sure the tire size is LT and not P235/75R15? That is typically an OEM tire for 4WD Rangers. Tell us 2WD or 4WD, gear ratio and engine size for better recommendations on tire alternatives.
