You're going to want to run 285's at least to tuck in the rear and you still might have issues. The problem is the axle shifts to the passenger's side as it get's lower so you'll hit the tire when you lower it. You should also have the shop grind down the fender lips for you. I am having an adjustable pan hard fabbed up right now so I can get the axle back over to the driver's side and tuck both rear wheels. You might want to run 275/40's.

Did you get Mob's whole set up....4link and rear axle? If so never mind what I said, he had the rear axle shortened if I remember correctly and the 4 link will eliminate the panhard......

265/30's will certainly be fine but also rubber bands....yikes, I hope you have nice streets where you live.

Basically the pan hard bar keeps the axle centered but on our trucks as the truck gets lower the pan hard bar kicks the axle to the passengers side, why....I have no idea bad design. At any rate in order to pull the axle back to the driver's side the pan hard bar need to be shorter. They do not sell an adjustable pan hard bar or a pan hard for lowered Tahoes/Yukons so I am having my buddy fab an adjustable pan hard up so wee can dial in the rear axle. This is very common on mustangs and hot rods but being that 6Klb SUV needing an adjustable pan hard is fairly uncommon they are not available. You could do the math and just make a shorter bar but with an adjustable you can really dial it in. I run 285/40/24's and I need 1/4'' in my passenger's side to tuck and get down all the way but I have like 3/4-1'' on the driver's side. Also, make sure they either roll the rear fender lip or just cut it off(mine are just cut and ground down) or you run the risk of cutting your wheels up......
