08tahoe Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 I got a 2008 tahoe on 26s and my tires are 305/30/26. I didn't upgrade my brakes and don't plan too, but maybe one day I will if I have the extra money. I have some rubbing in the front when I turn left and just a little when I turn right but that's only if I gotta make quick turns like into a parking space or when I make u turns.. I tried a heat gun on the inner fender plastic and a rubber mallet to hammer the bottom of the fender a lil but it didn't help much. I don't mind the rubbing but the noise it makes is annoying and a lil embarrasing when people are around lol. But other than that I love my 26's and I think the tire is perfect cause with a thinner tire I would have to be more carful cause its easier to mess up your rim.

Glad to hear your breaks are holding up okay, and that they fit with mostly no rubbing, because i recently got a 2010 and doing 26"s with 305/30/26.
dwright27 Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 295/30/26. Them 305 (9.5" wide tires) will more then likely scrub. Those 10 MM of width not being there will really helpZ 2006 F-150 4 DC XL M2 18's Walled Daily Driver XS Power 4 DC 3.5kw Team DC Team S.P.L.
