Hey mate
A few threads on here on this (use the search function on the top right - others may be able to post the link, but I'm on tapatalk, so a little bit beyond me!! lol).
In the meantime, how about slipping over to the introductions section and telling us a bit about yourself and your rig. Something we ask for and lets everyone know how they're yakking with.
That said, welcome aboard, hope you hang around, and get amongst it!!!

Reckon you'll get 33's on without a lift mate, I think that's approx 285/75/17 in new money

I have just put some steel 16 inch rims on mine. Cheaper tyres and easy to get more tyre sizes. Steel rims in black cost me $110 each, I had a set of muddies of an old car in 265 75 16 already, but I will go to 285 75 16 next time I have to buy rubber

285/75/17 will go straight on mate without a lift. No problem. You will need to take the front mud flaps off but no other dramas at all. That will be the biggest you could go though mate.
Look in the tyre section for my write up on the khumo kl71s for some pics of my GUiV with 285s on. Sorry on my iphone

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.

Complete thread hijack, but is that a CRD? How does it go with the big tires on?
