Coming from the offroading community I know this is a dreaded question, but trying to see if anyone has direct experience fitting slightly larger tires on their Gen II Rogue.
The vehicle currently has the stock 225/60R18. Alloy wheels are 18X7.
We need to replace the all seasons that are on it now, and I am only remotely considering this because a friend traded in his CRV and forgot that he had a nearly brand new pair of all seasons, 235/60R18.
Saves me from buying new tires, and keeps him from throwing them in the trash.
The measurements aren't too far off:
Diameter, 29.1" instead of 28.6"
Width, 9.3", instead of 8.9"
Sidewall, 5.6" instead of 5.3"
The one thing that concerns me the most is the almost 1/2 inch increase in width, the 1/4 inch of sidewall ride height doesn't seem too bad.
I will be taking it down to the tire shop to try, but I can save my time if people have already tried this fitment and it rubbed or just didn't work.
