Will this tire fit?

[<<<<]

I'm considering Nitto Terra Graplers in 165/70/17 for my 04 sport. Will 70's fit without front tire rub while turning?

I think you mean 265? Yes it will fit.

165/70/17 will fit...

LOL, yea 265 not 165. As for taller sidewall I'm ok without need to trim plastic inner fender?

I used to run 265/70/17 on my 2005 SR5 and it would only rub sometimes on bump while turning, but that was rare.

They might rub at full turn or turning and hitting a bump or driveway. It shouldn't be bad, you'll be fine! :cheers:

Thanks for input. Im going in next week to get 5 Nitto TGs mounted by NTB. I'm hoping to keep my rims scratch free after they done mounting.

I'm unhapy with NTB already after just a phone call there. It goes thusly:

NTB "Hi can I help you?"

Me "Yea, I need Nitto TG for 04 T4R SE set of 5"

NTB "Ok, $169 each plus tax"

Me "I need a garantee that you wont scratch or otherwise damage my rims"

NTB "Sry, Sir but we can't garantee that. Wheels get damaged all the time during mount."

Me " What? ... Are you saying that there will be damage?"

NTB "We are carefull but those rims are soft and get scuffed up during the mount"

Me "Well, good talking to you then. Good bye"


Is this a prank or a candid camera? Can you immagine your mechanic tell you he will get oil change but he might damage your fender and is not responsible for it because it happens all the time... If I had $250,000 car with $15,000 rims on it - would I get same response from NTB? I can keep on raving, but bottom line is - I'm not paying $850 for possible damage. Did anyone have any problems and if not who did you use?
