Here is the most recent pic of my pathfinder. I had the 265/70/17 duratracs installed on some 17 inch frontier rims as well as the front windows tinted.

Love them so far

Iced,

I bought the C rated tires, vs the E. What PSI are you running your tires? I've had mine around 35 PSI. I'm planning to play around with it some, but thought if you've found a good PSI already, thought I'd ask you.

I run mine (R51 Ti550) at 45psi... gives better handling and fuel economy.

Low pressures are good for soft surfaces at low speeds... medium pressures give a comfy ride... I like handling and fuel economy.

Dont worry, safety wise) about the pressure being high... they need to get over 150psi to pop off the rim.

I used to run mine above 40PSI, I measured my tread wear recently(ish) and found the middle portion to be wearing faster than the shoulder lugs . That's a clear indicator of over inflation. I run them at 38PSI and they seem to be wearing evenly now (as in same difference between center and shoulder lugs as before).

Thanks. Mine just seem to look a bit flat. Do you have C or E rated tires?

C Rated. Make sure to air yours up if you tow or carry heavy stuff. I also highly recommend these if you tow/haul with your PF...

I live right where Denver meets the mountains and I'm starting to see these tires everywhere from the city to the trail. They have a pretty strong following around here. And of course I still love them and will buy them again unless something even more awesome comes along.

Ok thanks for the tips. Yes I plan to buy the airlift as well. Been watching and reading about it, and it's probably going to be my christmas present to myself.

Yes they will fit. Here is another thread that shows the stock tire sizes. If you notice, 265/75/16 came stock on the SE-Off road and SE.
