Frontier Rims on my 06 LE Pathy?

Postby joe mamma » Tue Jan 03, 2012 7:10 pm

I've got an 06 LE 4x4 w/ 17" rims. I believe the previous owner damaged a wheel, and swapped it with the spare. I found a frontier rim from an 05 (I believe 16"), can I use this as a spare & put it in my spare wheel holder space? I assume the bolt pattern and offset is the same (frontier to pathfinder), but I wasn't positive if the spare wheel well clearance was fit for a full size.

Thanks

the spares are typically steel wheels and not the stock alloys.

but yes it will fit a full size spare.

My truck is an 05 LE and it has a full sized spare identical to thestock rim with TPMS and all...

weird, must be a LE vs SE thing.

I personally like the steelies they stuff under the rigs, I wish I could find 3 more of them and I'd run them full time.

Like Battlewagon said you won't have a problem. I have an 08 LE that came stock with 18s and ended up buying a set of 17 Frontier rims as the tires I wanted came in 17s. They fit perfect.

I thought so too... Especially when my TPMS indicator came on and all of my tires were registering properly. That is aside from the spare... LOL! Talk about frenzied...

Am I correct in my assumption that frontier rims will fit a pathfinder, both 05 and newer 16".
