32x11.50 is no problem, some mild trimming is required, and a little t-bar crank is recommended. 33x11.50 will require a lift of some sort, though 33x9.50 can be done with the t-bar crank and either AALs or shackles, but it's not too graceful. Power loss is minor with 32s, but starts to become an issue beyond.
Of course larger tires, especially when coupled with a suspension lift, will punish your steering. The Calmini and SLR steering kits essentially eliminate that though.

No, but I bet if you did a search for "trimming" you would find one.

Nobody seems to know that the search button is in the upper right hand corner???

Click "Search"
Scroll down to "Nissan"
Select "Xterra"
Type in what you are looking for.....

Pretty f*cking easy!
