No and what year i had a 1976 f150 it came with uniroyals
No when Ford got into the truck market, solid tires were used to handle the loads… So at least the rears were a non pneumatic tire… At one point Lucas was the supplier… Firestone's pneumatic tires usually paired on the front.

Ford Ranger at the time were also equipped with Firestone tires. If a Ford Ranger is equipped with Firestone tires is it really possible for it to roll over like the Ford Explorer.
