If you do plan on doing it you would have to run a 275/25R28 tire that will be close in size to the 26s you are running. here is a link of some wheels that will fit. http://www.rimsntires.com/packages.jsp?req=newCar&carYear=2011&carMake=Nissan&carModel=Armada

One word: why?

You can run up to 33" diameter x 13" wide tires on a stock height Armada IF the wheels have the same offset as the OEM wheels do.... So however you decide to configure the rim/tire line is up to you, but you will need to pay very close attention to the backspacing to achieve an offset that will comfortably clear under all articulation circumstances...

Not being rude or anything, but the Armada is already a high vehicle (I think it's 6'4" to the top of the roof rack bars). We have 20" factory wheels. Going to 28s would raise it another 4" off the ground. My wife is 5'6" and it's a good thing there are running boards on the car!

I think it cool, just cautious when you drive any little bump and I grantee the 28s will bend or crack...good luck.

So Pops... We can run up to 33" diameter tires on our stock Mada's, stock suspension, stock rims w/o scrubbing or anything? & if we have wider rims (with the correct offset) can run up to 13" wide?? Please forgive my ignorance, I dont know much about tire size & tolerances.

Thanks
