    by your sig line you have the same car as me. i fitted 285/76r16 tyres to my car without any lift. i had to remove the front mud flaps but no other fouling at all. I now have a 3" lift and can run 35's without trouble.

    You wil have 3.9 diff ratios and i have no trouble turning the 33s mate. even the 35s did fine.
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    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.

    I was running 33's with standard suspension and had minimal scrubbing on flex.
