Time for new tires Suburban 2500 - time for new wheels too...?
Tahoe & SuburbanThe power, space, and brutal towing ability make the Tahoe and its longer sibling, the Suburban, arguably the best full size SUV's on the market today.
Road noise is noticeable, but not annoying. Ours is also the family truckster, and we typically take long vacation road trips of thousands of miles. No one complains.
The ride is great; it certainly does not ride like one would expect from a 2500. Not harsh at all, and I put in Bilstein 4600s to control float/porpoising while towing.
Yes, they are the 16" wheels. 245-75-16 tires. I prefer the ride of a taller tire. I run the tires at the recommended pressures on the door sticker - 50 front, 71 rear.
I think the Suburban rides much better than my half-ton Denali sitting on 275-55-20s. Sure, the Denali looks better, but the Suburban rides better.
A quick check on eBay shows a set of (4) Duratrac in my size and load range for $660/free shipping....that’s about as good a price as I’ve found for ANY decent tire...
