Usp45shooter Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 I have a 2001 Tahoe and was wondering which option to go with. First, what is the beefiest size i can place on the stock wheel/height? Or second. If I got a 4" lift what size wheel/ tire reccomendation do you have? I really like the Wragler duratracs I saw a set in 315/75/16. What size wheel would that fit? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the Wragler duratracs I saw a set in 315/75/16. What size wheel would that fit?Thanks That would fit a 16 inch wheel.. the last number is the wheel size.. with the stock height u may can fit a 285/75 under it.. with a 4 inch lift i wouldnt go any bigger than 33/12.50's Edited December 17, 2009 by CASZ71 Quote 2000 GMC sierra 1500 ext cab KMC XD Spy series rims Front doors Fosgate punch 6 1/2's stock tweets Rear doors Fosgate power 4x6's Probox 10 and box under rear seat Rockford fosgate R-500 Prime series amp (537 rms) 4 gauge wiring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usp45shooter Posted December 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 if you wanna run 285's your gonna need a leveling kit... Oh ok. so would a 265 fit better? would it just be more practical to get the leveling kit or go for the 4 inch lift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURRITO Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 Oh ok. so would a 265 fit better? would it just be more practical to get the leveling kit or go for the 4 inch lift? leveling kits are nice and you can run 285's which are narrow 33's. with a 4" you can run wider 33's. in all honesty IFS chevys dont like lift kits at all... through the years i have found that the wider the tire the faster it kills your front end. a 4" lift with 30575r16's and 8" wide wheels is the perfect combo. remember though, if you wanna play you gotta pay so do whatever makes you happy... after all thats what its all about.

baggedon4s Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 watch what lift you order. most require a 17in wheel on the 4in because of the lifted spindles. IIRC fabtech you can run a 16 Quote 99 suburban, ranger rover headlights, SS front bumper,roll pan with frenched tag, 2nd row delete,glassed dash..audio to come whenever I figure out what I want.
