Lose the 20s. Here's Fabtech 6" 17" rims with Eezi Awn rack.

If you ever need to air down 20s they get a bit squirrelly, like they are going to come off the rim.

That looks great! What size tires you running? Man that looks good! I really didn't want to lift it 6 but maybe it's necessary. I don't want to rub but I'm open to trimming and I think having custom bumpers will help with that clearance too.

Help! Totally noobie and honestly my first Tahoe. Got a 2012 with very low miles that I want to turn into my hunting rig. I'm having custom bumpers front and rear built. Going to add roof rack, steps, fender flares, and Line X the entire vehicle. Also going to lift/level and add tires and wheels. The wheels I'd like to go with are Fuel Coupler D556 and the tires would be Toyo 305/55/20. I want them to be wide enough that it doesn't look like a railroad car when I put the flares on! Please advise on what lift I should go with. I'd like to go 3.5 front and maybe 2 or so rear but I don't want to lose ride and have bad angles up front. Thanks all!

35x12.5. Trimming was minimal...almost dont notice.

For the rack you remove the factory tracks and install new track. My daughter and I stood on it today.

We use it for surfboards, snowboards & a rtt.

That looks damn good too! I like both rigs. I'm looking more for the 3-4 inch lift I think but I need to know if I'll be able to clear 305/55-20. If I decide to go to a smaller rim it'll still be a 33x12.50 toyo r/t. Think I'll rub on inside of fender well? If I can get by with 2.5 level then I would. I'd like a negative offset to push the tire out so it'll look good with the flares. What offset are your wheels? Both you fellas!

You won't be able to clear 305/55 on any level kit. Have to go up higher to a 3.5-4" but those kits can be sketchy so pick a good one. Also only way to clear is stock offset wheels but never not rub sway bar. The big flares like mine stick out 2" so you need a 20x10 -19 offset which won't clear on a level kit and I have my doubts on a 3.5-4". If it were me and you want a little offset I wouldn't run any flares and do a 20x9 -12 offset with 295/55 on a 2.5/1 or maybe 3.5 kit. Only reason mag clears the 305 he has is cause bfg are infamous on being skinny. Every other 305 will rub on a level

Thanks. Not sure what the offset is. The wheels came off a 2015 GMC Sierra with the All Terrain package. I used 1/4" spacers, no rubbing.

Thanks for the advice and help! What kit would you recommend? Where are you thinking I'll rub? I'd like to run that -12 or -24. That's the options in the wheel I want. Thanks again

You will rub both sides of bumper corner with the 20x10 -24. The front side where painted and need to trim the liner brace back. Also the rear fender side need NorCal mod to clear.

The -12 offset won't rub much and need some minor trim of the areas above.

So running 33x12.50 MTs on my 3" level will rub with 17x9 -12? Could I get away with trimming minor plastic?
