2012 yukon 17" rims on a 1996 tahoe 2 door......

[dudeface]

hi there...........was looking to up grade my rims from factory 16 to 17 inch off a 2012 yukon with 265 70 17s. i am wondering if i will have any issues........rubbing when turning from different backspacing or different bearing cap hole size?? i am hoping I can just slap them on and go??? currently 265 75 16s on it there were 20" 100 spoke escalade rims on it when i bought it so i thought 2012 yukon rims would fit as well.
want to go look at the rims tomorrow so quik answers are appreciated

peace

you will have no issues rim wise with a set of stock-ish size tires you shouldn't have any issues either

100 spoke escalade wheels? You mean wire wheels?

Dudeface,
Post up those pics; I'm looking at doing the same thing but with 2011/2012 Chevy Silverado 18" Z71 wheels.

No rubbing on lock to lock turn correct?
Thanks
Tony
