I am a newbie here. I have been having a hard time finding pics of aftermarket wheels for my 06 white nismo crew cab 4x4. Anybody out there have any suggestions? I am thinking of getting terra grapplers in the 265 70 r17 1. because there only 40lbs and most of the stock 265 75 r16 out there that look good are 10 ply and weight any were from 49- 55lbs each. All that extra rolling mass kills your mpg.

there some good 6ply tires look at tire rack. terra tires are soft good maybe 25-30,000 miles. if you tow up to 4000 pounds for weekend use those p tires will chew up that what the stock long trails did to me

Do you think the P tires are two soft? I do tow a toy hauler starcraft 17sd on weekends. ( only about 3 times so far )The stock tires were p rated thats when I started looking into things and ther stockers were the only truck tire that nissan probably chose to keep the truck milage somewhat close to what they claim. ( p rated ) I am looking at american eagle series 140 in black rims mated with terra grappler 265 70 r17. I did the math and they seem to be a close match to oem size and weight. There about the only tire I could find out there that still has that " off road " look but wont sacrifice the mpg day to day. I payed too much for mine to start really bagging it! I wait till she has lost some shine yet.

Danny here LT tires yes for the towing if you are close to 4000-6500 range. Now to the terra tires friend has some on a full size chevy love hate with them the weare stinks but good in sand. He had a set of procomp AT and loved them they were a P tires too. The long trails on my Nissan only lasted 12-13,000mi from towing a 24ft Camping trailer I aired up to 38 psi they still wore out
