Considering they stuck with a 31.6" PRO-4X tire size (265/70R17), I'm going to guess that is still the max. Does it look like anything larger would clear? On second gens it was always super close to the inner fender when turning. Is that still the case?

 

Well I currently have 285-75R16 (33.8) on a 2019 without any rubbing. But the fender clearance seems a bit bigger on the 2022 models, so I was hoping someone had already tried to go bigger!

 

Same question. Just purchased the 2022 Crew Cab SV in 4x4. Looking to increase tire size without modifications. Thanks.

 

Good morning, I have this same vehicle and want to do the same. I'm having trouble getting a clear answer concerning how big you can go on it. A car sharp told me you could put 20' rims on it but of course the tire would have less firewall unless you modify the suspension.

 

I have 285-70R17 on it now and it only rubs at full lock and shock compressed.

 

Thanks! What are your thoughts on DIY lifts? Every time I think I will do it myself, I read a new horror story. It looks really straightforward. Just wondering.

 

i almost forgot what these threads were like lol.

my money is on 285/75/16 on stock wheels.

 

You will lose your money since most 2022 come stock with 17's!!!

 

285’s will fit on factory wheels, same as 2nd gens, but if you plan on using your pro4x for what jt was built for, it will suck.
I had 285’s with lvl 8 wheels and trimmed the hell out of the truck, did a viper cut on the front bumper and still rubbed when aired down. I went back to 265/75/16 and no more problems. I’m lifted 2” with ado springs and 5100’s

 

265/75 IMO is the most practical and best look for a 2” lift. 285/75 look way too stuffed, worse mpg cuz you have to get an LT, rubbing, less power etc…

 

For a 22' Pro-4X, (2"/1.5" lift), what would be the biggest tire size on stock wheels with no rubbing & no trimming?
Anyone have any idea?

 

With the suggested lift, at least 33's. (285-70-17 or equivalent)

 

You won’t rub with 285/70/17 on stock sus, has beadlock style wheels.

 

That's awesome! Curious though, What do the beadlock wheels have to do with fitment?
My truck is a Pro-4X without beadlocks. Here is a picture of mine:

 

Anyone get a 2in lift for their pro 4x? Rc one says it isn't compatible with the pro 4x

 

Waiting for mine to ship, ordered October 22

 

You guys with the 17" wheels have the option of going to a 275/70r17 tire. Bet those will fit great.

 

I think I'm gonna go with this:

Alldogs Offroad RCKilla Coil Spring & AAL Lift Kit for 2nd & 3rd Gen Nissan Frontier

NOTE - Our Rckilla has been discontinued and our Spacer Eraser Kit replaces it.

www.alldogsoffroad.com

I've emailed them some questions and after I get a response, I think that's the one I'm gonna go for.
I want to stay away from spacers!
I think that kit with 2.0"/1.5" and 285/70/17 on stock wheels will look perfect.
And I also think it will work well without messing around with any of the stock suspension components that the truck already has.
We'll see!

 

Just got the same pro 4x blue! It looks amazing, but needed a better stance.
How is 285/70/17 on stock wheels? Did you decide to lift or kept it stock?

 

 

Anybody try some pizza cutters yet? Something like a 255/80r17 (33x10), or 255/75r17 (32x10), or 235/80r17 (32x9.25)? Spent a number of years in places like Alaska and Colorado and prefer skinnies in the winter.

 

Hey folks, first post here and figured since this seems to be the popular tire thread I'll ask here. After 15 years with a 2015 Frontier I am in a nice 22 SV Crew Cab 4x4. Never done any wheel shopping for trucks before. What are the reliable and highly rated wheels I should look at? I see a lot of Black Rhinos in posts, any other names?

Respectfully,
Catalin

 

Level 8 is a good brand. I’m looking at their MK6 wheels for my S 4x2.

 

Well folks.... I've learnt the hard way... 285-70/17 do not fit. I have 17x8.5" wheels with 0 offset which is a factor for sure... But I don't think they'd fit anyways. MAYBE on stock wheels?

Lift is on the way (thankfully), and the heat gun and zip disc will be coming out.

Oops.

def. a factor, running mine just fine

 

He's got 0 offset wheels that are 8.5" wide. Are you at a stock offset & width?
That makes a big difference!
Heck I got a 4" lift with 1.5" spacers that equate to about -3 offset, with factory width wheels and I still rubbed.

 

Yes, I’m stock dimensions. I might be talking to soon here but I believe 10mm offset is the most you can have and not rub on “33”

 

lrod has the factory wheels which are 7.5" wide.

 

Ya but he has spacers which make it around -3 offset. So it’s similar to a 0 offset. That’s why I was confused.

 

285/70/17 BFG KM3s no lift, no rubbing. Also test fitted the bigger tire in the spare location and it clears by a hair.

Wow those barely fit! But wow does that look awesome!

 

Has anyone installed 255/80r17s on stock suspension yet?

 

Go with the 255's!!! You will have to do the melt mod regardless!

 

Agreed, pizza cutters FTW!

I'm so internally conflicted right now - I don't want winter to be over because I've been having a great year at the ski hill, but I want winter to be over so I can get my lift/tires installed. First world problems I suppose...

 

Ok... Finally got my lift installed (with the help of my nephew who wants to be a mechanic when he finishes school), and new wheels in. I did the ADO Koni kit with the spacers on top of coils. Sadly I didn't take before measurements to compare, but I'm pretty sure the specs should have me at 3.25" up front and 1.5 in the rear.
I went with the black rhino chambers, 17x9, 0 offset, and 285-70/17 duratracs (32.7"). They "rubbed" (more like hit) hard enough in the garage that I seriously considered selling them and going with a higher positive offset (or smaller tires). After much deliberation, and testing to realize that I'd have to cut metal to make them fit.... I dove in with the grinder and made them fit. I was able to trim off a small amount of "excess" metal and a couple of mounting points, then push the plastic back and out of the way. I'll have to modify things so the plastic is mounted better, and tidy things up a bit once I know there's no further rubbing.... But they're in. Thank ****.

My advice to anybody out there that wants 33's...stick with a +18 offset or there abouts.

@lrod1707 (~+3 offset), I have no clue how you managed to make yours fit without trimming metal. Yes, I know your lift is about and extra 3/4-1", but that wouldn't have helped me here. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Actually I'm at -8 offset, Lol!
It's those 9" wide wheels that you put in that widened up the tires. That's the problem!
I have factory wheels which are 7.5" and my offset comes from 1.5" spacers.
I'm not the only truck that has this setup.
Zero metal trimming, all plastic + removal of the front mud flaps!

 

not sure if it’s been posted in this thread, but here’s some 285/75/16’s. Painting the steelies tomorrow. 2.5” RC N3’s front and rear, and all mud guards gone. Very minimal trimming required and if you never go off road you wouldn’t need to with this setup. I’ll personally be trimming and will post pics when the wheels are painted.

 

What did you trim? Pics? I have the same lift and am currently running 16x8 ET15 wheels and 275/70/16 tires. I'm thinking about going to 285/85/16's in the spring.

 

Yeah as previously mentioned, the 9" wide rims create a slightly wider track with the 285 tires, and that gets caught on the back of the inner fender. After completely cutting off the metal clip behind the liner and finding a different way to re-attach it, the tires now clear it. I'm happy now for the most part, the new 285/65r18 duratracs are a little stiffer than the previous 265/70r17 but kind of expected that with a higher load rating. If anyone is curious, I grabbed a few additional photos

I'm thinking of painting the fender flares to either match the charcoal front bumper or pearl blue to match the paint. With the matte bronze wheels, I'm leaning towards the blue. Not a fan of the different shades of gray/black/silver for the trim pieces throughout, and I really like the sparkle the pearl blue has in the sunlight (TouchUpDirect shipped a small can within 24 hrs of ordering).

 

That’s one good looking truck!! Went with dobs aswell just waiting on leaf pack to come in so they can ship my kit. Picked up a spacer and shacks in the meantime!

 

I thought you went with a ko2? Interesting. Well, I want to be able to go off-road without rubbing, so I may should stay stock size? I sure do like the 285 look though. Thanks for sharing!!

 

Just curious, anyone ever go 255/75r17 in ko2? A little taller (32.1), will raise truck 1/4 inch but a few pounds lighter at 45.7

I think if you did the heat mod and made it flat. That or just lifting it so it won’t touch.

I want to keep the susp stock, so I'll have to reconsider if I want to go to 285's?? I may stay stock size and go to ko2's but not sure that's worth messing with just yet since my current tires seem fine? Decisions....decisions. Thanks again! Your truck looks great! I'm jealous but not sure the rubbing is worth it. I guess bottom line....how much does the rubbing affect your driving off-road? Does it damage the tire or the fender well at all??
