Hey guys, looking into two lowering kits and want to know what size tires would be the best. I am looking at either the 2/4 drop or 3/5 drop that NorCal Tony offers. I have 22's on my 2007 Tahoe now but I am in need of new tires. I figured since I'm going to do a drop I might as well get the correct tires too. Thanks in advance!

I get a little rubbing with the factory 22" tires, so I'd imagine that anything wider will introduce more rubbing.

305/40/22 will fit with very minor rubbing.....as long as your rim offsets are ok. Mine are 22x9.5 +30 offset.
