Rim size change on 2007 Tahoe
Hey THUGS, I just began thinking about taking the stock 17 inch rims that are on my LT and moving up to 20s, perhaps even 22s. I was just wondering the exact process of changing rim size from my size rims to the next.
Thanks A LOT!

Welcome to the forum.
If you stay w/ the same rim width and offset as the factory 20s and 22s and same tire size, you won't have any problems. If you go w/ wider rims and/or wider or taller tires, then you can run into some rubbing issues.

hmm
there is also conversion chart online. Just google it.
example, factory 265x70 R17 has same diameter then 305x45 R22.
I got 22'' on my burb with no problems.

Alan,
The 285's you mention, are almost the same as your OEM's, save they are about 3/4" wider, and 1/8" shorter. Close enough to keep your Speedometer right on.
The likelihood that they will slip on with no problems is good, but, just in case, get your Hoe up on a Flat Rack, turn the wheels right and left, and make sure that there is reasonable clearance.
