Default TIRES and RIMs CHEVY TAHOE LTZ

Hello,

I was just robbed of my 20" stock Tires and Rims. It was left on bricks in front of my house.

Insurance gave me some cheap money for my tires and slammed me with some 22's, that stink. Considering the ugly stuff they had it seemed reasonable that I would buy these.

Problem is it's killing my ride. So I need to purchase something smaller. Normally it takes 20's, but I am thinking of going with 17's to put some all terrain tires on it with more rubber.

Please advise, cause I am lost and can't afford a lift and I certainly don't want to spend $2500 on original rims.. Please advise Will my tahoe be able to fit 17", with this size?? p255/70R17 and then I purchase bulkier tires...

Welcome to the forum.

Sorry for your loss. Why didn't the insurance company replace the stolen tire/wheel combination with the ones you had to begin with? That seems to be pretty much a standard insurance practice.

17's may work, but give us the year of your ride. Also, don't do "P" type tires, those are for Passenger Cars, you need to go with the "LT" type. Hoe's and Burbs are Trucks, and need a more sturdy Tire.
