I currently have a 2017 Pro-4x(Non XD) and was wondering what size tires and wheels I could get to fit on the truck without any modification. I purchased the 3" lift from Rough Country that also levels out the truck as well. Just curious if I would be able to get 34s on the truck? I am wanting to get the Trail Grapplers as a tire with some 18" wheels. Also, what's a good offset to have a nice aggressive stance but nothing to aggressive where the tire sticks halfway out. Just want an inch or so to be sticking out. I'm open to any dimensions that people have used with a similar setup with different tires.

Here is a link to the lift: http://www.roughcountry.com/nissan-suspension-lift-kit-834c.html

Okay, I have installed the Rough Country 3" lift kit. I still have my factory tires, which are p275/70R18. You can see from the pictures that I can fit a much larger tire now. Especially when I remove the plastic mud flaps.

I will replace the tires until the Fall because I still have good tread on these. I just wanted to share the lift from the kit.

I plan on trying on some 35x12.5 to see how close to fitting they will be. I WILL NOT do any trimming, so I may step down to the 295/70R18

Well imo its not funny its kind of insulting to RC customers. firstly not being actually 3" second its incomplete.. should have camberbolts, should have taller bump stops third even in the instructions it states you need to grind down your coil bucket cause their UCA have such bad clearance they hit..

I guess we have had very different experiences. My installation went very easily, and I did not have to grind anything. There is no interference. Went faster than I thought, and I feel like I’ve got at least a 3 inch lift if not a little bit more.

Not my experience. its all the threads ive seen on FB groups of how bad RC UCA are and the ball joints failing before a year. its a basic kit missing parts a lift over 2" should have. im not talking about installing at all. It will be higher at initial install till you get an alignment and the suspension settles.

I am not trying to be argumentative, but I disagree. I had a RC lift in my 2015 Jeep Wrangler and it did AWESOME! Plud a good buddy of mine owns a shop installing all brands of lifts, and they have had great success with RC systems. Of course, you get the system that matches what you are doing. The RC kit for the Titan does not turn the truck into a rock-crawler. But I think that the RC kits are as good as any other.

Just my $0.02 worth

Well my 0.02 cents is I've read 100s of threads on here and the FB groups about RC specifically for Titans and all the issues that arise. I'm just stating facts. Do what you will. Specifically for our trucks it's cheap and incomplete.

I have the stock tire size ridge grapplers for 2 weeks now. Discount tire aired them up to 55psi and I hated them. They drove all over the place. Called nitto and they suggested 45psi. Muuuuuch better. Still rougher by a bit than the General Grabbers, that i thought were great. I know most of you ditched them but I got 62k with tread left on mine.
