Hey guys I'm pretty new to this so just to start off, I don't really understand tire sizes and how they collaborate with wheel sizes. What I basically want on my 2001 4x4 5.3L LS Tahoe is new wheels and tires, along with a 3" lift. I was checking out websites like wheelfire entering in my model/make etc and I found some rims and tires I like, but I don't know if they're compatible or even possible with a 3 inch lift. If you could take a look at these and tell me if these will work at all with a 3 inch lift that would be great. If they aren't going to work please tell me or give me guidelines of what I can put on my Tahoe with a 3" lift.

The first problem I see with the tires above suggested to me by a website is that it's wheel diameter is 16 inches, while the rims below recommended to me by another website are 18's... so there is a bit of a dilemma.
