I recently inherited my G'mothers '99 2WD Tahoe. I know; very generous! After fixing some ignition issues it runs really well. It will need tires soon. It has OE size 235/75/15's on it now. I personally don't usually consider anything w/o 4WD to actually be a real TRUCK, but I'm going use this almost exclusively for towing a lawn trailer, so it isn't a big issue. It appears that there is lots of room left in there for a considerably taller/bigger tire. What's the general consensus on what will fit w/o any serious scrubbing or suspension work while staying with the stock 15" wheels. Its not going to be big money tires. Just something that fills the wheel wells a bit more and will give it a more aggressive stance. One other question that's likely to open a can of worms. The suspension on this feels about like soft boogers. It towes my trailer really well (5500ish/500ish TW), but I can watch the rear end drop several inches as it takes the trailer weight. Any super cheap add a leaf or air lift kind of solutions to firm things up a bit w/o REAL suspension work? I'm used to driving a '97 4runner and it's suspension is quite rigid compared. Don't have much $ for this'd, but I'd like to avoid looking like a girl a much as possible. Thanks for any help in advance.
