I just ordered an '08 Nismo King.. (yay!) I want to pimp it out right away, but don't know what to do about tires & wheels.. Does anyone know the widest tire that will fit before you start to bump into other stuff? What about the largest diameter without a lift? Ideally I'd like to do 285/70-18s, that would be a 7.9" sidewall, 16.9" radius, and be 33.7" diameter.. which is about a 6.5% rolling radius increase over the 265/75-16s that come installed from the factory. (265/75-16 is 7.8" sidewall, 15.8" radius, and 31.6" diameter). Does anyone know if this will fit at maximum articulation of the suspension? Also, does anyone have experience with speedometer recalibration?

I'm guessing that the 285s will be fine, since that's only 4/5" wider or so total (or about 2/5ths on either side of center).. it's the aggregate increase in diameter of 2 inches that concerns me.

Thanks..
