Hey all.... just purchased my first Tahoe. Its a white 2010 LT, great condition. I am picking up tomorrow and I am pumped. The one thing that I have to fix immediately is the 17" crappy wheels and rims.

I am looking for basically these wheels below...chevy stock in 20"

Any idea what these are exactly? OEM Rims? Any suggestions on to go polished or not? And most importantly suggestions, resources, or places to go to get these and possibly have my current ones as trade in? And lastly, what type of wheels to get to go along? I will be driving on pavement in the big city 90% of the time. Not looking to break the bank, but just a good solid set of wheels that will look sharp and are reliable.

Thanks!!!

Those wheels would look good. Not sure if you will find anywhere to trade in the 17's but there is usually a set of those for sale here on the forums.

Those are polished. You can tell by the gold bowtie. The chrome ones have a black bowtie. They are extremely rare to find.

If you want to step up to stock 22s, let me know. ;)

Yes they are LTZ wheels like stated above. You can also try the dealer. There was a member on here that got his from the chevy dealer for a really good price. Or craigslist. I searched on cl everyday for months and got lucky one day.

I have some factory 20" polished like those above you mentioned. I've been wanting to sell them for a while. Got no problem getting rid of them for a fair price. I already have some 22" aftermarket rims and tires I'm trying to see as well (ones on my pic)
