Ok, well Im just about a week away from getting my hands on a 2008 4 door 4x4 Nismo (silver) frontier. I have the ability thanks to some settlement money to buy it outright and not have any payments, I am not nearly as familiar as alot of on here about where to go to buy (quality) upgrades.. The first thing I am going to be doing first and foremost is change out the wheels.. I will be looking for a black set of wheels with a polished lip. i found these wheels which look pretty decent to me. KMC Series KM127 Dime Wheel . I wouldnt mind trying to find some with a smaller spoke count but it could possibly give me issues with strength of the wheel if i decide to take it off road. I would like to to hear some input from you guys about where you got your wheels,, how much you paid, wheel offset, largest tire i can run without it rubbing...im looking to go with a size of 18x8.5...tell me what you guys are running and if you could throw up some pics...appreciate it guys!!

america's tire. honestly, they have me the best deal on rims, centercaps, and mounting/balancing when i bought tires and rims with them. i'm not just being a site sponsor whore either, this was long before they were a site sponsor.

I got mine from a shop about an hour from me,I priced them online for about a month and at the time the best price I could get was 1850.00 for wheels and tires.After calling the local place I got them to beat the online price and got the wheels and tires for 1802.00 installed.
I have 18x9 Moto Metal 951s (Black)I cant recall my back spacing and offset sorry I think I paid about 185 a wheel at the time but they are cheaper now.
Moto Metal
Tires I started with BFG ATs 285/65s that were about 250 a tire
Now im running 33x12.50 Kumho Road Venture MT KL71 that I paid 320.00 a tire for and got those local.

I think it looks great just as it is now. You can sell those wheels and cut your new wheel bill by some. Good luck with the new truck.

thanks Clint, earlier today i was snooping around on the net and i found a 2 inch leveling kit.. PerformanceLifts.com -- PRG 2005-2010 Frontier 2" Leveling Kit - 2wd & 4wd ... im sure somebody on here knows about them anyone got any comments....good/bad...lemme know..thats prob the only thing that kinda bugs me about the frontier is its factory stance. If this will level out the front end to bring it up to the same height as the rear i would be more than satisfied.
