Figured it was time to share a pic, haven't of my own Tahoe since I joined. I picked up my '07 LT 4x4 about a month ago. I've been replacing small things inside and out, as needed (drivers inner door handle, various pillar trim pieces, etc). Finally got the front glass re-tinted to match the stock rear tint (20%), went ahead and had the whole windshield tinted 40%, LED's inside and out (except headlights), and just got my 22" Texas Editions with Bridgestones (with TPMS) from OE Wheels LLC.

I keep procrastinating on the trainhorn install, but just have that left to do and some WeatherTech mats all around inside and I think I am done. Maybe a head unit and headlight upgrade left, but that will depend on how I feel a few months from now. I am known to change vehicles every few months. :)

(for the folks OCD about their vehicles like me, the mudflaps were put on when the truck was new.....so the paint is worn from movement. Also the front left quarter panel has been painted at some point, and they cleared over the pin stripe, so removing that is not an option either :( )

Are those 285-45-22's? Did you have shipped to you already mounted up or buy them locally?

All from OE Wheels..... mounted, balanced, tpms sensors and all. Delivered to my door. Can't beat it. They are 285/45 indeed.
What did they cost? How were they delivered to your door? In boxes?

I paid around $1700, call them or chat on their site with a sales person for your own exact quote. The wheel faces were wrapped very well, then boxed individually.
Nice rims.
Thanks. :)

It's my luck with vehicles lately, so it is what it is.

Rims look nice, remind me of some beefed up Z71's. I like any rim that hides the super small rotors on these trucks.

Nice! I wanted the better ride, hence the 45 series.

No, my 22's came with plastic centercaps.....not GM parts. If I understand correctly, you can knock the black centers out of the GM versions. But the plastic kind like I got with my wheels, the black part seems to be permanent. I honestly didn't examine them THAT close, since I like the black centers because they give it a factory look.

Those wheels look great. Train horn? That's gonna sound wicked. Just order husky floor liner. Can't wait to install them.

Nice looking wheels, I think the pinstripe actually looks decent on that color. I watched your train horn video, that's pretty badass! What do you use them for?

Used stock lugs and GM wheel locks. I couldn't find any other wheel locks that fit under the centercaps, and the GM's aren't really that expensive.

Anyone that does anything stupid enough to hear them. Occasionally to scare folks too, with the exceptions being elderly, small children (infants), and pets.
