you think you are netting 5 in of lift? I think it will fit. Checkout the ranger forums, or the explorer forums. That's where you'll get the most accurate info. Plus, there you can see tons of pictures of your ranger with 3+ in of lift and all different tires.

btw, if you think the 12.5's might be to wide, you CAN get BFG M/T in 33x10.5. I had them on an explorer with only 2" lift. They we're awesome!

I had an '03 4runner with 4 1/2 inches of lift with 33" Super Swampers and it rubbed pretty bad around turns, but not bad enough where I wouldn't do it again. I'd say go with 33's also.
