Tire suggestions?

[Danzigman]

It is time for a new set of tires for my 05 Tahoe. I am currently running 275/55r20 Nitto 420's. I like the aggressive look of these tires. What is everyone running? Any other tires I should look at?

Where are you located and what are the weather parameters?

I am in the Houston Texas area, no snow or ice. I rarely take it off the pavement. Wet performance would be important.

I run Terras but sounds like you are looking for a street tire. Why not just go with the 420s again?

Zeon LTZ A/T here and I think they're great. I get compliments on the tire and tread pattern often.

I had Pirelli Scorpion ATR's (275/55/20's) on my '96 Tahoe, worked GREAT in wet conditions. If you want to fill the wheelwell a little more, you can step up to 275/60's with zero effort. You can probably even squeeze 305/55's on there, but you'll probably have to turn your torsions up a bit, but nothing that would require you to need lift keys.

Discount tire is acting like they can no longer get this tire...

So 60'ws will not rub?
