Stpickens Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I am upgrading my 2003 LE pathfinder next year. It will be getting a OME 1.75" lift with OME shocks and struts first. Then the tires will come within a week. I would love to get P255/70-17 but I heard that they just won't fit. Any one care to elaborate on why.

Regg03SE Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 They'll fit. You may need minor trimming for you to turn full lock without rubbing but they'll definitely fit Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleFR Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) That's a 31x10 should be tight but ought to clear. The strut clearance is going to be very tight if it will work at all. I'm not sure what the backspacing is on those rims. Edited December 13, 2016 by LittleFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stpickens Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 I am curious about back spacing with the factory rims and the struts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03TroutFinder Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 (edited) If your running those stock wheels, they are 17x8, 20mm offset. The back spacing will be 5.29". Love those wheels too. Wouldn't of gotten aftermarket wheels if mine had those on it when I bought it Edited December 13, 2016 by 03TroutFinder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't of gotten aftermarket wheels if mine had those on it when I bought itthanks. I didn't know what the actual backspacing actually was. Yeah I hear you on the rims. I am very happy with the way they look. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornpone99 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 You can always add spacers or adapters and get the grinder out I got 285/75/16 with 4"BS, i thought I would need spacers so I got 1.75, but that is over kill. I need to fab a little on the wheel well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stpickens Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 I am not afraid of trimming. But I want to stay away from spacers and not have clearance issues with the struts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regg03SE Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I just put my wheel spacers on and I love the look and the stance it gives. I gotta trim a good bit tho. Rubs like hell Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
