Ground Clearance 2wd vs 4wd

Does the 4wd have more ground clearance than the 2wd, even when both have the Off-Road Pkg?

This may sound like a dumb question, but take a look at the photos of CaliforniaTitans truck in the photos section. His is 2wd and it looks lower to the ground than the 4wd's.

Just wondering.

well a XE has 245/75/17 standard for a diameter of 31.47"

a Offroad Package has 285/70/17 for a diameter of 32.71"

a standard SE & LE has 265/70/18 for a diameter of 32.61"


so unless the Rancho shocks (&/or revised spring rates?) make a significant
difference I would think the clearance would be about the same

I am also wondering if the tow package increases the clearance at the rear, because of stiffer springs. Do you 4WD owners wish the Titan had more ground clearance?
