Y62 S5 Patrol wheels and tyres - Offset & 35s - HGT new rig build Garage Life

There is no doubt that when building any 4wd the wheels and tyres make the most difference. Both visually and capability wise.
With our Y62 series 5 Nissan Patrol build, tyres were at the front of the list but not so much wheels. Why no wheels? I actually like the factory Patrol wheels. But when it came to offset they are seriously lacking.
The factory wheels are an 18” x 8” positive 40 offset. What this means is they sit well within the wheel arches of the Y62 Patrol. The wheels we went with are a KMC Mesa in an 18” x 9” with a positive 18 offset. This sits 35mm further out than the original wheels.
Also because the wheel is an inch wider it makes the tyres appear a little wider in the way it sits on the rim. This off set creates an aggressive stance and has the tyre side walls poking from the guards. All the tread of the tyre sits with in.
The Tyres we went with are a Kumho MT71 Mud tyre in an 295/70r18. These are a very aggressive mud tyre and definitely have the road noise to prove it. The overall diameter (OD) should be somewhere around a 34.3” tyre. With the 30mm height increase I believe the real OD is much closer to 35”.
The factory Patrol tyres are a 265/70r18 with an OD of around 33”. They are a very tame Bridgestone non aggressive all terrain tyre. They are a good option but just have no wow factor.
So is this the perfect tyre and wheel combination for an Y62 Patrol? No, well not for everyone. Se wheels and tyres are a very personal preference. My opinion an 18” x 9” +18 wheel will be perfect once I lift mine.
As for the 295/70r18it is a great tyre size option because you can fit the spare wheel in the factory spot and they are still a decent size increase. Also its a legal increase in my state. The down point is they do use more fuel.
Any way that’s just my opinion, what are your thoughts on the perfect y62 patrol wheel and tyre combo?

    Man, I love my tyre pressure monitoring system. Airing up/down I don't use a gauge any more just put it on the screen and the kids yell out when it gets to the pressure I want. Yes I have checked with a gauge and spot on, same, same. So glad I put them back in my new rims.

    I haven't found any version of your Y62 with a manual transmission. I own it in Kuwait and use only rear wheel drive in a way to disconnect the electrical conductors, and the second is to install the motion retardants for the front axles in this way, only 100% power at the rear.

    Nice, they are great rigs ✌️ You can definitely put 20” wheels on if you want to. It is the tyre size that will create change. Standard tyre size is around 33” so you could put a 20” wheel with 33” tyres and there be no to minimal difference. The tyres in this vid are close to a 35” tyre, I have since gone to a 35x12.5r18 the patrol has no issue with them. Just keep in mide the bigger the tyre the more fuel you will lose and there is slight power loss being bigger and heavier, but nothing to bad.

Ill probably look to keep the stock rims and go for a more aggressive tyre closer to 35;s once the rig lands. cheers

    Important tip for all Y62 cars: Do not change asymmetric wheel sizes. A necessary example is that the 17 gauge for all tires does not have any problems, but if the front is 20 and the back is 18, then this is the problem when changing unbalanced, the maximum speed of the car is 129

    there are some little boxes of dubious origin that transmit some kind of TPMS false data to satisfy the computer. I couldn't tell you where to get 'em but there are some videos on other makes/models where that has been done. I ended up throwing ACDelco 315MHz sensors that do basically all makes/models that use 315MHz into my Nissan Frontier so later I can install a pressure display that receives the Ford version of the data that these sensors emit. That will let me keep an eye on my tire pressures even when aired-down for 4x4 driving, because obviously the on/off dash light isn't going to tell me if I go from 15 PSI to 0 PSI like a numeric display would. If your truck is instead 433MHz that would be even easier, there are TONS of aftermarket solutions for 433MHz, but almost none for 315MHz.

    @@HappyGoTravel Putting the sensors in a case won't work, they don't start transmitting until they spin unfortunately. If you don't mind chalk lines, a good tire shop should be able to mark on the tire the position of the valve stem, break the bead just enough to replace the valvestem with the sensor, and then reassemble without requiring balancing again. The chalk mark is in case they do have to dismount more thoroughly, so they can put them back on in the same orientation. It should keep labor costs down if they don't have to balance again.

    Hey brother nice RIG! Can I kindly ask for the wheels, when you buy an 18x9 wheel does it have to be the exact PCD or centrebore as the default or can both PCD or Centrebore be far from the default, it's just I'm browsing the same tyre and it says that the Y62's wheel specs are - Center Bore: 78.1 mm - PCD: 6x139.7. So just wondering if I bought a wheel with this specs would it fit the y62 or should I get a number closer to the Center bore rather than the PCD? 18x9 6/139.7 18 1133 106.2 Thanks for your insight! Love the vids bro! Keep em coming

  • @HappyGoTravel

    2 жыл бұрын

    Cheers mate ✌️ the PCD is the wheel studs so that needs to be the same. As for centre bore it can be bigger you’ll just put hub centric spacers in to compensate and get it to fit nicely with the hub. One thing to remember is the y62 has massive front brake callipers so alot of wheels won’t actually have the clearance with the back of the wheel face to fit. It’s best to test fit or talk with a tyre shop in all honesty.
