#273737 - 05/06/05 12:51 PM Yet another tire question, ARB bumper
Anonymous
Unregistered


I have a bone stock 2004 Xterra. I have installed an ARB bumper and a set of Shockworks Sliders. I do not have the mudflaps. I am wanting to install a set of LT265/75R16 Mickey Thopson Radial MTX tires and am wanting to know what I need to do so they do not rub. I had a set of these on my lifted Grand Cherokee, they measured smaller than they were listed. The Grand Cherokee had 33x12.50 15's on it. They measured 32 inches tall on a good day.

Thanks for the help guys.

You might not have to do anything...if you do, maybe a little piece off the ledge where the mud flaps mounted to up front, that's about it.

Just mount them, and turn the wheel, and cut off where it hits if it does...typically the inside corner of that ledge...takes about a minute per side to trim off that notch where the back of the tire swings through.

Enjoy!

Hmmm, and you might have to cut off part of the ARB's wings...ARB's and TJM's need to have parts cut off to avoid larger tire contact sometimes...33's definetely...if these run small, probably not...but check when mounted up....flex it up and make sure you clear the ARB too. (Shrock and Calmini bumpers I think clear w/o trimming for 33's.)

Does anyone have any pics of an xterra with 32's and no lift?

Thanks

265/75/16's - they measure 31.8 inches in diameter, still plenty of room in the front.
