Great thread, but lets keep it formated. If you have wheels and you are 100% sure they fit as in the manufacturer told you or they are on your actual truck then list the following:

American Racing Sidewinders and Moab's, 17x8, 4.5" bs and 0mm offset. I'm running the sidewinders myself and love'em. BTW, you can't get them in black, mine are painted.
Are you serious, lol????? You know how much I paid, for all who don't know, 400 bones each (ouch) and a little more for the paint (D'oh). In the end it's worth every penny!!!
Weld Evo Velocity 6 (20") - spoke with Weld directly and they stated these would fit, MKW MK18 (18" and 20") - spoke with tire shop that has installed these on Frontiers before. Both have our bolt pattern but I'm not sure of the offset.
I've heard that Black Rhino Kero's (20") will fit Frontiers also. I have seen more than one photo of these on a Frontier.
If anyone is running the Weld's or MKW's, would love to see a photo.
I just picked up a set of those exact wheels from Discount Tire for $120 each, and yes perfect fit. I think they said it has +12mm offset, and w/ Trxus 285/75/16 they bairly stick out from the sides.
Without getting off the main thread, b/c this is thread is exactly what I was looking for, can someone simply explain to me what difference I will notice on my truck if I fit a 17x8 wheel with +25 offset/backspace v. the same wheel with 0 offset/backspace. I'm confused how the same wheels (American Racing) fit, but have different offset/backspace measurements. Does it mean one wheel is going to stick out of the fender more? Or is something going to rub on the fender or when I turn at full lock? I really like the Sidewinders but I want to be sure I know what I am getting into before I shell out $ for a set of wheels that might look great in a picture but not fit right.
simply put- if both wheels are 17x8 and one has +25 offset and one has 0 offset, the wheel with the 0 offset will stick out of the fender more, 25mm more to be exact. The truck will have a wider stance with the 0 offset wheels.
Love my truck but frustrated. I need winter rims for my 2000 4x4 and can't find anything except racing wheels, far too expensive for me right now. Wasn't planning to drive it in winter but my beater minivan died and so until I find another winter beater I have no choice. My wheels are stock...
As many of you know I think the ABS on our trucks is dangerous on the snow/ice. I think they "retuned" the ABS sensitivity around 2007 to be less, and safer, but still not great.
There been 3 methods of disabling the abs.
1-Fuse pull/switch
2-wheel sensor line cut/switch
3-Yaw sensor line...
First of all, I’ve read and re-read all the guides, the manual and already had a few goes at solving my issue.
I fitted my winter wheels this weekend; a set of OEM 5-spikes with OEM sensors still fitted, with new Cooper Evolution Winter tires.
I followed Raine’s guide; turn ignition to ON...
Has anyone gone to the skinny 33's? In particular, I'm curious if the turning improved any.
I'm researching, looks like the 255/85 Bighorns would be awesome, but run $750-$800. Plus, I see the 285's as a more common size; if I'm out and cut a tire, shops may not have 255's.
There are a ton of...
Expeditions West: Tire Selection for Expedition Travel
Saw this posted at another forum and the paper discusses tire width from the viewpoint of off-road use & Expedition build. ie, should I go wide or narrow.
Narrow tires let you go taller with less rubbing and less lift. Wider tires give...
