Explorer 225/70-15 option 235/75-15 Limited 2WD/4WD 235/75-15 Sport 2WD/4wd 235/70-15 Option 4WD 255/70-16 Eddie Bauer 255/70-16 Good luck and hope this helps.

Had the same problem on 98 Eddy Bauer we have. Have you noticed that it has a tendency to belch out hot air and the blower speed slows down mostly when you accelerate or give it a little more gas to climb a hill or an overpass or even pass somebody? If this is the case there is a pressure switch that's hooked into the intake manifold were it can sense a drop in pressure and when it does it drops the ac clutch out and slows the dash blower down till the pressure comes back up. JUMP IT OUT. All your problems will go away. Thats in there to unload the engine during acceleration and heavy loads and after the switch ages it gets trigger happy and lazy about closing to bring the ac back on.

one on each side front, one on each side back. 1-1 is right front...2-1 is right rear...1-2 is left front... 2-2 is left rear....o2 sensors are front, cat monitors are rear. btw if you have lean codes p0171,p0174 chances are the sensors are not the cause! lean mixture is the cause, which can be a multitude of causes.
