Default 2005 Xterra - wheel question

anybody seen an 2005 Xterra with aftermarket wheels (lifted or stock) or maybe installed aftermarket wheels on one? I've been trying to find a set of wheels for my truck and put some bigger tires on, but there seems to be a problem with caliper clearance. Xterra boards are of no help.

Any suggestions?
Thanks

not really - I like the AR wheels called Mojave with a teflon finish (fancy for BLACK) - doesnt look like they'll work on my truck. It's not in the backspacing or offset - it's got something to do with the caliper placement. I dunno, it's becoming a pain in the ass

could you get something close,and use bolt-on spacers or something for a couple mm's of clearance?

The wheels actually have a teflon finish to help with ease of cleaning. It is not just a color issue. What is exactly the fitment problem or does noone know?

Yeah there's not much of an aftermarket for the Xterras. Sorry.

I gotta a 04 frontier with a 3inch body and a 3inch suspension and it barely rubs the fenders but does not rub the calipers at all with 33x12.50x15 on mickey thompson classic II's 15x10's.
