I have a 2007 tahoe andI want to go with either 22's or 24's. I'm posting this b/c Iwant to get some insite on the changes that i think may occur like theride quality, gas mileage, and find the best size tires.

i don't think gas mileage will be noticeably different with 22's or 24's. but you may experience a difference in stopping power. i had 24's on my 03 yukon and i immediatley noticed my brakes didn't have as much "bite".
with the increase in wheel size, you'll be able to feel the road more. better for handling and worse for those damn potholes the city never gets around to. little bumps become minor jolts and potholes become landmines.
but when the sailing is smooth... IT'S SMOOTH BABY. on my 24's (dropped and with Hotchkis bars) i could bend corners at 30-35mph.
people have their opinions about rubber. personally, i look no furhter than toyo proxes. high ratings. low noise. and those corners i told you about, i could also bend them in the rain.
i'm shopping for 26's for my tahoe. they'll definitely be wrapped in toyos.
good hunting!

i think retail is almost 400. but do some shopping, i'm sure you can beat that. you should be able to score 24's around 330 to 350.
