Hi all

I have a bone stock 98 Yukon, 4 door 4wd, I would like to lower it 2-3 inches and put some P265/50R20's on it. OK I realize this is pretty mild, but need to keep a high WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) on the vehicle...

From what I can find on the internet the OEM wheels have an offset of +44mm, but the closest I've been able to find in a custom wheel is about +20mm. Even with only a P265 tire, it looks like the edge of the tire will easily extend outside the fender. I just don't see how I could lower it unless I'm using a wheel that has an offset that is close to stock.

Am I all wet? Or am I just not looking in the right place for new wheels?

Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide!
