I will be upgrading to some 24" escalade wheels for my 2007 Tahoe Z71. They are the factory repo's on ebay and they will be coming with 305/35R24 Delinte Desert Storm D8 SUV Tires. Will these tires rub or will they even fit on my Z71?

I plan on possibly lowering my vehicle as well... 2 in in front and 3 in in back. I was told I can't just use lowering springs and need to buy new struts. I was also told that the camber may be off?

What do I need to do? I don't know much about any of this so any feedback is much appreciated! Thanks for your time.

I also plan on switching back to the stock z71 wheels during the winter months so the salt won't eat up the new wheels.. will having the vehicle lower mess with this setup or won't I be able to go back once i put the new wheels on and have it lowered?

I'd try for 295 instead of 305, but either will fit fine without trimming. However, if you are ever gonna go lower, that's when the 295 will be better.

If you do a 2/3, do spindles up front. It will ride just like stock.

Tony (NorcalSS) on here can probably get you a better deal on the rims, tires, and suspension stuff
