Hello i wonder if i can fit 16x8 rims with 275/70/16 bfg all terrain on my d22 with nothing done on the suspension. i think 265/75/16 will rub but the 275/70/16 is a bit lower and a bit higher than stock tires 265/70/16

Sorry for my english i am from sweden hope you understand

I had BFG A/T on mine from the day I got home from the showrom 265/75/16 a very minor trim of the front mud guard that dont rub at all......
 
I run 265/75/16 Cooper ST's on standard alloys, had them fitted when suspension was standard. Had no rubbing at all. And I tested them!!!!
 
I think you will get some rubbing on the mudflaps on the front with that size, nothing that can't be easily modified though.

Does anyone have picture on a stock navara with 265/75/16 and 8x16 rims i would like to see it before i mount it
or 275/70/16
 
Yeah if you have a look under members rides - Matts D22 Str Navara from factory to now...... you will see my 1st couple of pics are with the new tyres/rims on standard suspension ok.
 
just be careful regarding the tyre laws...for QLD u cant go more than 15mm in diameter than factory so max would be 265/70/16

what offset will be best with 16x8 rims?
whats the offset of the standard alloys?
 
the four spoke alloys are +40 offset. My set of steelies are +20. I know some other people are running 0 offset, but then you may need to widen the tyre guard, check castors etc.

I had a set of 265/75/R16's on the factory alloys with no suspension lift (pic in my garage). Had to trim away the plastic guard on the inside front wheel mudflaps by about 15mm. Otherwise no dramas.

Keep reading through the D22 Wheels, Tyres, & Brakes section as it has heaps of ideas from other people and prob has a lot of answers to questions you might be thinking of. Post a pic when you get your new rubber on
 
Ysterday i ordered these rims
