Thanks for all the input. Especially the link re: offset. It really helped to clarify that for me. I'll put up some pics as soon as I make a final decision.

Hi Everyone, First time poster here. I have a bone stock 04 pathfinder chinook (similar to the xe I believe) Anyway its off its factory warranty now so I'm planning on doing some mods. First up it needs new tires, and I thought why not new wheels at the same time. American Racing says their Trench series fits on my pathfinder, but what size/offset do you recommend? # 16" x 8" AMERICAN TRENCH GLOSSY BLK 6x139.7 offset=0mm # 16" x 8" AMERICAN TRENCH GLOSSY BLK 6x139.7 offset=12mm # 17" x 8" AMERICAN TRENCH GLOSSY BLK 6x139.7 offset=12mm # 17" x 8" AMERICAN TRENCH GLOSSY BLK 6x139.7 offset=25mm I'm currently running factory 245/70r/16 Duelers on the factory (16x7.5?) inch rim and want to move to a wider tire with a more aggressive tread. Questions about max tire size come up all the time, so I'm aware that 31x10.5 could be my max but I'm curious about the set up that any of you would recommend. I don't do any serious off road stuff, the 4x4 is mainly used to get through the snow in the winter and some light trails in the summer. Thanks in advance everyone.
