Default Check out these new 24's from Boss...thinking about getting them

Was doing some searching on ebay, and found these wheels for a great price! Check them out below and let me know what you think. Also, does anyone know what the total diameter of the stock wheel and tire for the 07 is (non-20s..either a 16 or 17 can't remember). thanks guys.

What is the tire size on side wall? I'll calculate the total diameter for you.

I wouldn't buy boss wheels. Thats just me.
IMO they are a lower quality wheel which = cheap price.

Try to find a real photo of a tahoe with the wheels you want.
The artistic renderings of digital vehicles and wheels on the internetare never true to life.
Meaning, the wheels on the vehiclewon't look as good in person.

I always ask myself whysome wheel companys don't offer REAL photos of thier wheels on REAL vehicles.

What is the problem with Boss wheels...do they have a rep of being poorly made?

I guess I'm just wondering if there is a history with boss wheels being made poorly, known to warp, etc. If anyone has any input I'd really appreciate it

Personally I've never heard of Boss. But I'm somewhat out of the loop when it comes to wheels. They do LOOK good though.

Tire size on sidewall of factory wheels and tires is P265/70R17 ... I will be going to a 305/35/24 most likely...can anyone help me with figuring out the difference in current diameter and what the 24s will be? thanks

Yeah they are made by american eagle. Wheel looks good but I don't trust the company. They have always had issues with their chroming. The chrome looks cheap and is poorly made. Trust me I used to work for a wheel distributor. They usually do not come with any warranties which is usually a big concern for me when deciding to buy rims. I know there are companies out there that have a 5yr warranty pn the chromed wheels and a 3 yr warranty on painted ones. You always get what you pay for. Just a heads up.
