Igetstabby Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 4" should be about even with the fender flares if you have them... 3.75 sticks out a little bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUELER Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 ive got 16x8 with 4 inch backspace.... (even tho my rim is an inch bigger in diameter, the offset and width is the same) and ya like getabby said above, the rim is just about flush with the plastic fender flare. i think the qx4 flare is just a tad bigger than the pathfinder flare.

XPLORx4 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) captandy: 8" wheels with 4" backspacing will cause the tires to extend past the wheel wells on your Pathy, giving it a wider track, and making it appear "tougher". The downside is that the sides of your truck will get a lot dirtier, especially in mud. Here's a photo of 31x10.50R15 BFG AT's mounted on 15x8 wheels with 4" backspacing on a 1997 LE: Click if image doesn't appear above Edited October 31, 2011 by XPLORx4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
