I havent seen a video around but it'll be the same as any other spacer lift.

I beleive the largest tire someone has fit is 235/55r17 (27.4") with a +40mm wheel offset. The tire rubs while turning in reverse on the inside of the wheel well, on the back. You can see with stock tires that there isnt much room as is if you crank the wheel all the way to one side. Less positive offset may fix it but can also cause rubbing elsewhere in the wheel well.

I was also hoping to fit larger a/t tires but i was also trying to find tires wider than 235, rather than taller. Im considering both the truxx 2" lift + the Eibach 1" leveling lift springs in conjunction with eachother.
I kinda assumed so, but thanks for confirming it. I gotta look into the Eibach leveling springs. I saw few other people mention them in the form

just thought I’d share to the post (also have no clue on how to start my own post lol) but I did the truxxx 2” lift kit with 235/55r18 Nomad Grappler x/t tires and love the look. The ride is smooth, noise at a minimum - barely noticeable, rugged look 🤘🏼🤘🏼 slight rubbing when completely turned going in reverse, but I plan to add wheel spacers to fix that.

A 28.2" tall tire fits and doesn't hit the bottom of the springs in the front? This changes alot. I may consider 235/65r16 (28") falken wildpeak at3w. Up til now ive only seen 27" tires fit.

With the Jeep Cherokee lift kits, the front steering knuckle is clamped to the struts, and with the lift, is slid down the strut to give more clearance, leading to some cherokees able to run 33" tires i believe. I wonder if 30s are possible for the Seltos. Or maybe thats just crazy.
