erathge Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hey guys, my summer setup is running 32x11.5x15's on wheels with 3.75" backspacing. Ive read all the pinned topics but have yet to see someone running 235/85/16's. I'm thinking about going to this size for my winter tires, but would be using the stock 16" wheels, that i believe have a backspacing somewhere between 5-6". Does anyone know if these tall and skinny tires would clear the strut without spacers? Hoping to make a last minute decision and catch a sale that is still running today. Thanks in advance!

sroeser01 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 is your pathfinder lifted at all? that could effect how tall tires you could clear... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erathge Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Yes, its lifted 2" plus a 1" spacer up front, but that wont affect the tire to strut clearance area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushnut Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) "Stoic" on expedition portal, is running a set of those on his( 2002?) I do believe he is running 1.25 spacers to clear the strut. I'm looking to do this myself as soon as my current tires are done.(hopefully soon!) Edited January 4, 2014 by bushnut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theexbrit Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I have 33x12.5x15 Duratracs on mine with a 2" lift & 3.75 backspacing. They JUST clear the strut by about 1/2". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
