Sometimes the coils may settle after a week or two. You should be able to get close into spec if all you have is two inches up over oem. I Got 4 new adjustable bolts for the rear and was able to get into spec

I would also check the weight rating. How about a Lt 235 / 85 r16. ? More expensive but should handle more weight load

Also check the width of your new 16 wheel. If itâ€™s stock Nissan than 7 inch. If not , be careful as some non oem do have issues clearing brakes or backspacing. Etc

The only thing with the size and configuration comparable to the R51 right now FS in the US is the 4runner. But they are quite expensive I just cant bring myself to pay the toyota tax. There are rumors that in a couple years Nissan will bring out a new Xterra or Pathfinder thats body on frame for t...

I found of pair of Duratracs someone was tossing out. I put the pair on my extra set of stock wheels. No issues putting these wide tires on the stock 7 inch wheel. I put both on the rear and drive around the block. No issues. Of course the front would require turning so that might where I run into p...

Should be okay if your suspension is still good. Stock on 06 S model is 245 75 16. Aside from sort of skinny tall tires, you will be better in snow and potholes

I got the full Rancho setup. Rear shocks seem great. Havenâ€™t tried any other though. I bought Armada springs for rear. At least 3 inch lift. No spacers on top of them though. From Autozone. Rear Alignment tough

You can also look into the V8 rear spring option. If you have a v6. I got the generic autozone version when my original oem was cracked. Seems a little bit stronger than oem. Less say but no lift.

Still available? How about the tires and wheels?

Anyone tried the aftermarket rear cup holders? About 1/5 the cost of OEM. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F392046267574 I think for $15 worth it if you just want to cover the hole left by broken oem. Question is - will color be close enough to rest of ...

I changed the oil and it has made the difference. I think the oil may have been 1/2 quart low.
Letâ€™s see how long this lasts

BullDozer

Not sure if available to you, but sometimes Costco has 93 octane for only $.30 more a gallon. Anything more costs, i stick to regular 87.

BullDozer

Thank you both. So most likely fresh oil change wonâ€™t solve the issue?
