Stepping up to 35's when those Feds wear out? Maybe 37's? Re-gearing on the horizon?


You got it, I have been hounding the internet for tires and wheels. I can’t find what I want to save my life. But I am staying in the 33-36” range. Re-gearing will depend on if I move up in size. The 3.73s are just fine with 33s but I can tell I would want 4.11 at minimum with 35s+.

I really want 18x12s with a 33x15.50 Baja Claws. Mickey Thompson made some in the past but no one offers a tire in 33x13.50+ sizes besides Interco and Nitto. And I don’t want either, the Nitto is on a 22. I don’t want 22s. And the Interco tires in those sizes are for 15s, 16s, and 16.5s. If can find a pair of old Welds in 16x12 6x5.5 for a decent price I might jump on those but even then I don’t see any tires that will get me that smaller side wall profile with a huge bubble.

This is another option I have seen and don’t mind. Machined 20x10s for the old school feel with some 36x15.50s for the bubble.

That was with my 35’s and hell no it didn’t mess anything up. A lot of people are surprised but tahoes are beasts

Down to the frame on 35s that’s a pretty deep hole. Some days I really miss muddin’ but then I remember the hours of cleaning and the hours of flushing rocks and mud out of frame rails and I’m good.

Find some 16x12's, and run these:

AND, I just saw they can be run on 10" wides. Much bigger selection to choose from, but I've always liked this classic look:
