Tire question

I have a 96 Pathfinder which lists 265-70 R15 as the standard tire. Can I switch to something more common such as 31-10.5 15 without causing any damage to the 4WD?

Bigger tires will put a strain on all driveline components, but those two sizes are very similar (try http://www.1010tires.com/TireSizeCal...?action=submit ). I wouldn't think you'd have a fit problem.

The only way I know that you can really hurt 4WD is to use 4WD with different diameter tires mounted on one or more wheels.
