Chapter 3: New Wheels for the Xterra
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- After a few years of plastic-dipped wheels (which were impossible to clean) on the X, I finally bought new rims. A lot of Xterra guys are running Pro Comp 7089's but I've never seen one in person...until now. I very happy with the results.

Finally xterra wheel mod vid!! I’m getting the same thing but didn’t know what I needed to do before putting them on. what sisters tire did you get?
Sorry, just now seeing this. I used the standard Pro-4X tire size. 265/75/16 and the melt mod.
Perfected Auto quick question. Was the melt mod necessary for the stock size tires? I’ve heard people doing it for the 33’s
@@kolbietafoya1672 Sorry to just now see this. The melt mod was necessary for stock size tires. Even though they are the same size as the ones that come on the Pro-4x, the tread is much more aggressive on the BFG KO2’s and they just barely catch the plastic on turns. I also have a half inch spacer lift up front. BTW-the melt mod is super easy so don’t let that stop you.
Hi sir. Just got the same wheels yesterday. The only difference is went with the 17's 7089-7868. Just wanna ask, did you use the stock lugnuts? Or you used an aftetmarket spline lugnuts? Thanks.
I read that some people were using the stock lugs on these rims so before I left to go to Discount, I found a socket that fit the stock lug nuts and was still able to fit in the hole in the rim and brought it with me. It's a good thing I did. I was going to go with the spline lug nuts because they had black ones. For some reason, none of the ones Discount had fit correctly. I am positive they were using the correct size but they were slightly loose on the threads and one actually screwed up the stud threads, (which they had to fix). So, I told them I know that the stock ones fit and that I brought a socket with me that they could use, which they did. BTW-It's just a deep craftsman socket but I have a huskey one that fits also which I now keep in the truck with a breaker bar. They are perfectly balanced so there weren't any issues using the stock lugs. Which did you go with?
@@PerfectedAuto thank you for the response sir. I havent installed it yet, im planning to do it this saturday. Im planning to use the stock lugnuts since i dont have the spline lugnuts. Do you mind if you give me a link where i can buy that socket or the name of the socket? Can i buy it on any auto parts store? Thank you.
@@fjdomingo4866 Here is the one that I keep in the X. www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-1-2-in-Drive-13-16-in-SAE-Deep-Socket-12-Point-H2D12PDP1316/202934344.
Hi sir. Would the stock suspension fit well with these rims and tires(265)? I have a stock pro4x and thinking to get the same rims and tires (265)
Thank you
I have 1/2" spacers up front that I installed to level out the truck. Not sure if that matters or not. The big thing is the melt mod. That's something that will definitely need to be done.
Hey man, I installed the same wheels but I’m getting a lot of vibration in the steering wheel at high speed, even after having the wheels balanced three times. Did you have any similar issues?
You might need to get hub rings . Especially if you have after market wheels . I had the same issue on my Tacoma and just those plastics rings helped.
you may also need control arms. once I changed wheels on my car and for whatever reason it “exposed” the fact my control arms were shot. after changing them it was way better
I have Vision assassin wheels and Falken wildpeak at3w tires on my X
I looked at those rims also but the Pro-Comps were on sale so I went with them.
Quick question
What offset is that on the wheels?
The stance of the truck is nice
My question too
What size tires are they?
What size tires are you running and are you running any lift?
Sorry for the late response. I’m running 265/75/16. I have a half inch leveling spacer up front and the melt mod. No rubbing.
What's a melt mod?
Sorry for the late response. Melt mod is taking a heat gun to the plastic liner inside the fender and heating up the section behind the tire where the tire would rub. Basically, you heat it, push it with a hammer or something, hold it for a few minutes and it will then retain that new shape and the tire wont rub.
Did u lift up?
No, 1/2" spacers in front is all
Hey i have those wheels and tires lol
Take off the steps make it look more aggressive too. If ya want. Idk it’s your life. Lol
Steps are off. I think I showed that in a later video. Can't remember since that was a while ago. Anyway, I agree...looks way better without them.
Are those beadlocks?
No, they are not.
You running a lift? Thanks
No lift. Half inch spacers up front.
17s or 16s?
16s
So.... Is it flat black or matte black???
They're kind of a matte flat matte black color.
Ouch, each shot has only 1 hand on the steering wheel! Maybe not a great idea to show dangerous driving habits on U tube...
Ok, Karen
