Hey everyone. I’d like to fit a pair of 26x12 rims on my factory Tahoe equipped with Air Ride and Mag suspension from the factory. I know I can fit a 10” width but I’d like to install some 26x12. Has anyone done so with no level or lift. All factory?

I cannot advise you one way or the other for sure, but I think 12 may be a bit wide, and you may need to use spacers.

@Trey Hardy May be able to give you some thoughts and perspectives regarding your 26x12 rims.

There’s a fella on here with a orange at4 running 26x14s on 33s I think all he has is a leveling kit if even that so as long as you stay with a 305 or 33” no bigger you should be good and worse case throw a 2” leveling kit under the strut. I think I’ve read where some people use zip ties to pull the bottom of the fender liner back also to prevent rubbing
I say go for it

Here are 2 examples of newer Tahoes on 26x12. I'm sure there's some minor cutting involved, but not much. Or, just get a lower profile tire.

I'm running 24x14's, not 26's. I wanted 26's but I didn't want to change my ride height by much. And I don't have the air ride suspension, just the mag suspension with a 3" Ready Lift kit.
