New 23 Tahoe here...Tire Question

[mrhp]

Thanks for letting me in. Got a 23 Tahoe last week and can’t stand the tires. 275 50 22 alenzas! What other size will fit a stock Tahoe with factory 22 inch wheels.Don’t want to trim or rub. It is the rst and conventional coil spring suspension. Pictures would also be great Thanks!

Those Alenza tires really do suck, I would just buy some better tires, a lot of people like the michelin's. I run Nitto's on my SUV's, check around the forums for tires and I'm sure you find some concensus,

I like my Coopers but lots here love the Michelin Defenders. Welcome to the forum.

By the way, I don't believe you have a 2023 until you post pics....c'mon man!

It’s a 23 all right. I’ll get pics tomorrow. It’s dark 30 out now.

I have seen some 305 45 22 tires on factory wheels, but do not know if they have any rubbing issues or not. I like it that they would be a bit taller and wider than the factory size, but don’t want any issues along the way. The upper control arm and knuckle are awfully close to the tire. I would feel better with some first hand experience with this size of tire.

What do you dislike about the tires? Just curious. I’ve driven a lot of cars and never particularly hated the tires.. maybe something in just not understanding

Try driving on an interstate in the rain in these and report back....Zero confidence....
I actually will change my travel plans if I see decent rain forecasted on my trip....

Looks for one, and I can tell by the tread the winter traction will be poor. I am looking for an aggressive all terrain tire. I am not a fan of being stuck in 3 feet of snow.
