    If you use neg 40's the wheels will be sticking right out. I believe you even need to add some rubber flaring when using neg 13's. Not sure, you might even have to give the guards a trim so the 35's dont hit the guards. @AB @Winnie. You guys would know more about this.

    Yeah the 35s will require a bit of choppy choppy to the guards.
    -44 on the GU diffs would be super wide! I am running 33x12.5 with the factory flares on -22 rims with the GU diffs and they stick out a fair bit.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Yeah they will fit unless you have the TB48 brakes. They may stick out a bit though.
