i was wondering about the easiest and cheapest way to run 33s on a pathfinder i saw a bunch on google but no many ppl list what they have into there rig. So i was woundering if i was to do the 2inch ac coils and NX4 Industries coil spacers could i run 33s and if so wat back spacing or wheel spacers would i need if any or could i just run stock wheels with that lift and 33s. Or do i need to go to the sub frame drop lift to run 33s?
thanks

I was one of the originals to put 33's on a R50 with just the 2in lift. You DO NOT need a sfd to run 33's. Here is a thread I made over the topic....all the answers to your questions are in that thread...read through it.

Not realy, all they would do is make the struts top out more than they already do with the lift kit.

not actually 100% correct... Strut spacers do nothing to add to the strut extension if they are installed on top of it. Strut spacers that fit between the spring and the strut top plate, DO cause what 01silvapathy said... because they actually compress even more the spring , causing it to have even more extension force.

Just though it was worth mentioning.
