Umm, I can't say for sure, but you can try searching (search bar on the right) to see if anyone else has got that info. One of the threads I found says this for the front:

265/40/22

Are you going to go with a staggered setup?

Width wise i can tell you 265 will definatly fit as i have 20x9 with 265/45/20, and im dropped 2 inches also. 285 SHOULD fit in the rear since you dont turn the rear wheels.

Instead of having 265 up front and 285 in the back, you cant rotate tires and stuff which will lead to faster and different types of wear in the front and back, maybe go for 275 all around, or just do 265 like mine.

i dont know how 275 would be in the front as in terms of either rubbing the strut or turning the wheel, might require a little inner fender trimming, but the important thing is if it will rub on the strut or not.

Id go with 265 to be safe, unless you can test fit somewhere.

yes i am trying to get a staggered setup with a 22x8.5 in the front and a 22x11 in the back. think i can get them in there because i already have no inner fenders. might go with you a 275 because i am also going to be dropping mine 2 inches and the staggered set up might not fit or have severe rubbing problems

just gonna let you know now, if you drop it 2 inches, and have 22s on there, your going to be goin with rubber bands like 275/30/22, in order for it to fit,

also you have to make sure it wont rub the struts and stuff like i said.

2. make sure you get upgraded brakes.

3. you will have to put in longer studs like i had to on mine, cause the lug nuts were barely grabbing halfway on the studs, but this depends on the rim metal thickness where it mounts on the studs.

4. if you go the route like i did and drop it, i would have gotten 22's but i went with 20s and a bit thicker tire which is still low pro anyways. But even on my 16;s with thick soft snow tires the ride isnt great, throw on the 20s, and its even more rough, i mean i dont mind, but now throw on 22s with a like 30/35 series height, and probably feels like your riding on wooden wheels.

5. if you have alot of potholes around where you live etc, your gonna have to watch, or you will get thrown around.

6. theres a train track crossing by my house, going one way is fine, but when your coming down the other way, you hit that going more than 35, and your a** will be like 3 inches in the air haha.


Just giving you a few tips and insight on what to expect.

thanks for the advise. i already have upgrade breaks. the shop i work for 350z motor sports we have already looked over my suspension and bought the longer studs and the same lower springs and kyb suspension as you have. where i live we dont have many pot holes at all or railroad tracks for that matter lol, i live in the heart of the scottsdale az. my qx4 is soon going to be just for show and to be at the drifting and drag events out here for to play some tunes.

I had 22" Razzi rims last year with 275 tires and with a -15 backspace we had to trim quite a bit of the fender to get it to clear when the truck squats on bigger bumps or carrying a load

There are also other options out there to lower the truck more comforatably than the 4X4parts drop kit which is very harsh and front sprung. Check out NPORA for more info on that if youre interested and havent already pulled the trigger on the 4x4parts order. Jeep WJ springs in the rear ride like HEAVEN!!!

thanks i will look into it. do you think that i should go with the jeep wj in the front as well? i am ordering the lowering kit on Monday. I don't think i will have any problems with the rims fitting because of the inner fender, because i dont have any at all.They have all been removed a few years back when i had a 4 inch lift on it
