22" Wheels?

Hey Guys, it has been a WHILE since I have posted on here. Got rid of the 06 Crew Cab a while ago and got an 02 Tundra AC, best truck is a paid for truck. Well I just got rid of that one, didn't like it and want back in a Nissan.

I found a 2000 Crew Cab Nissan that has 22s on it, and I am in no way interested in 22s, but the owner says he has the stock wheels and tires and will change them out and lower the price.

My question is, will 22s with low pro tires fit the Fronty stock? I asked if it had been raised, or at least the torsions cranked, but he said no, but I just can't see the 22s fitting without doing that.

So if the torsions are cranked real high, how bad would it hurt to drive it back home 250 miles? As I wouldn't be able to do anything until then. I want to jack the torsion to make the front even with the rear anyways, and I would get an alignment right after.

Should I consider this deal, or keep looking? Good price, and she only has 89,000 miles.

I bet 22's would fit with a REALLY low pro tire... the diameter on the stock tires is about 30" so it would stand to reason... either way you should be fine driving 250 mi on cranked t bars... just look to see if the UCA's are pressed tight against the bump stops and if they are just take it real easy over bumps

i can't understand why anyone would do that to their truck

Me either. I finally heard back about the original I wanted, it is 150 miles away, 2000 White Crew Cab with 92,000 miles unmolested, just the way I like em. This one is closer, cheaper, and no worry about the torsion bars. I should have pictures up soon. Hopefully I will return to be a CF Member all over! :hi:
