Need Serious Help, about to order wheels (wheels installed)

Postby t0pnotch1 » Wed Dec 05, 2012 8:03 pm

Wheels have been sitting in the garage for the past month. Couldn't wait any longer and had them installed yesterday. Tires maybe for sale once I have the lift kit together.

285/65/18
XD Addicts

i like this tire size calc:

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html



as for what size, i think the general consensus is you can do 285/65/18's (or equiv) with very minimal rubbing.

here's my post about it:

This helps too. You just need to find out the size and offset of your current wheels.

thanks a lot guys those websites really helped!

ordered wheels going w/ the XD Rockstars @275/65-18 to avoid removing the splash guard and rubbing.

$1200 for the wheel and tires, not too bad

nice find! however, I'm looking at the website and I seem to not get the option for my 2011 for the rockstars fitting my pathfinder.... i like the look as well, and looking to upgrade my wheels but I have limited options.

What are the specs on the wheels? Width/offset/back spacing?

this is all the info i have for now

Aspect Ratio: 65
Rim Width: 9
Rim Diameter: 18
Bolt Pattern: 6X4.5

I will be bringing my pathfinder to them and they will do the exact measurements and determine exactly what i need. Since im asking to make it "flush" with the fenders and not to sink in...

Check with Wheel Pro’s – the Maker of KMC wheels…. from what I understand the only KMC wheels that will fit with no adapter are the 17”-20 “Addicts and the 22” Monsters both with + offset giving it a “flatter” look.
