I'm sure this has been addressed, but I'm looking for suggestions on wheel tire sizes, as I'm about to get rid of these god awful Regency/Foose wheels and go with an all terrain look.

Pictures would be awesome, to help me paint the picture.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going with 20's, but not sure from there. Right now I'm running 305/40 22's, but like I said, it's a "street" look. I'm going for the AT look.

I have had good luck with the Nitto Terra Grapplers, so I'll probably be going with that brand of tire, just not sure of the details on sizes.

Ill also be adding a leveling kit, in case that matters.

I'm also pretty sure I'll be going with a deep dish wheel if that helps with size suggestions as well.

Again, I'm sure this has been covered a million times, so even if there is an old thread that someone knows of, I'd appreciate the reference.

My ride is a 2007 Yukon, XL, SLT.

Thanks in advance!

Leave the 22s and get some 305/45s. That's the set up I got with a CCM leveling kit, it rubbed just slightly at first but not anymore.

I'm already running 305/45 22's. But me wheels are a Chip Foose wheels, not the look I'm after.

So, i'm going with an all-terrain look with different wheels and aggressive tires. I'm going to 20's because I'm staying stock height (with the exception of leveling), and to keeps costs down.

I like less sidewall, more wheel, and a wide look.

I was told that 305/55/ 20's would rub.....but I'm not currently rubbing with the above set up.

Should I go to a 275/60 20, instead?

I thought you said You had 305/40?
You'll regret getting the 275 over the 305. I wouldn't think it will be a problem you could probably trim the inner fender plastic a little so it won't rub.

I did, my bad. Right now I'm running 305/40 22's.

I'm going down to a 20" wheel, and want a good look.

The local tire shops are telling me that at factory height, I can't go any bigger than a 275/55/20 with A/T tires and not have any rubbing issues??

This is all getting very confusing to me, I'm running 305/40 22's and have no rubbing issues.

I just don't know enough about tire sizes to make sure I end up with the look that I want.
