22 inch rims on Nissan Pathfinder 2001

[kingflosser]

Hello guys,

For next summer I'm planning on buying chrome wheels for my 2001 Nissan Pathfinder XE model.

Some of my buddies are telling me it's a bad idea to go with 22inch chrome rims.They are telling me that I will have suspension and transmission problems and that I might crack the rims....

Are they being haters? or is it really a bad idea to go with 22 inch rims?

I dont see a reason to go with 20 inch since pathfinders have 6 bolt pattern.

Also, whats a good rim/tire size to go with.Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

20" is the way to go, 22's are a bit to big. If you went with dueces, you would have to run a really low pro tire which affects the ride of the truck tremendously. Here som pics of some 20's on mine, these are for sale because I took them off about 6 months ago when I traded my pathfinder in for a new truck, but they've been sitting in my garage because I haven't had a chance to sell them.......

Yo what's the size of the tires for your 20 inch rims and how much are you selling them for?

[AZhitman]

Agreed, 22" on a Pathy is just too big.

Consider the weight of those hogs and the fact that you have stock brakes, and 22's are looking for trouble.

actually i have 22'' on my 1999 pathfinderyou do feel the pumbs a bit more but i dont have a problem with steering, the transmission is still smoth, acceleration is good . if you just use rims for summer like i do 3 to 4 moths a year you will be ok

[kingflosser]

Hey man,

What's the tire size that you used for the 22 inch chromes?

[youngcoke]

i have 265/35/22 . it is a real low pro tire. but it looks good and the ride is also good.

youngcoke do u have any pics?

[youngcoke]

ill try and psot one

[youngcoke]

i took a piece out of the photo my girl was standing their. the whole look of the tire looks small because it is mostly rim, their is only about 2 to 2 1/2 inches or of tire.

to me 22 are very small.but they fit perfect

dont have pics yet,but it fits with lots of space,i had 02 pathy 17s on and those are 8" 18 offset so the 22s only stick out less than 1" more
