They are 265/65/R18, they were just put on the car when I bought it recently so I plan to go ahead and use them for a while. Maybe eventually get a more AT tire but I like them so far.
Show off your 2015+ leveled Tahoes and Yukons!

If I did eventually go to a different tire what are some recommendations? What size can I go to without having any rubbing issues at all?
Or should I stick with stock size?
275/65/18 will not rub at all - you might be able to get away with 265/70/18 ---this would be 1 inch bigger diameter than what you have now.

Here’s my 2017 4x4 with a 1.5” front spacer and 275/70/18.
Looks amazing - do you have any rub on U-turns?

I actually just got them on yesterday and I haven’t done a tight u turn yet. I’ll let you know after I do one. I love how I don’t have to worry about ripping off the air dam when I pull into a parking space now.

I have 5100’s on all 4 corners. I know exactly what you’re talking about. I have the fronts all the way up. I run 285/50/22’s with no issues.
The pot hole wheel hop has completely been removed with the shocks. They are firmer but you feel the road, no more butter ride or floating. When coming into our driveway with stock shocks the Yukon would bounce another 20 ft after the curb. Not the case anymore.
Handling has improved dramatically and off-road/dirt roads in GA ride like paved ones. I recommend them although I am no suspension expert.

Love the look with 17'' wheels!! Great looking Tahoe!

Love the way it looks.
I'm a previous Pedal Commander owner. People who never had one talk shit. I would buy one again if I was unsatisfied with the current vehicle's throttle response. They're awesome.

Finally got the 2.5"/1.5" installed, with autoride 1.5" shock extension bracket and 5100s up front at stock height.

SuspensionMaxx. Autoride still works as it should and the front rides a million times better with the 5100s.

Gotchya. I put fox units up front of my wifes denali and deleted the magnaride. Now the back shocks seem to be shot so gonna replace them. I like the leveling feature and think I want to put the original shock setup because of it. Wouldnt mind adding a little spacer since the front is up more than I want.

Just posting this from about a month back. Will try to get more pictures later.
2015 Yukon SLT
Rear: Blistein 5160 with the Moog springs and 1.5” lift spacer
Adjustable sway bar links
front: Rough country UCA
bilstein 6112 adjustable coil overs with springs and small top out spacer to level it out.
295/55/20 nitto ridge grapplers.
Down the road I’d like to upgrade the front coil overs to Fox or King with dirt king UCA. But that’s for later on.

Spot on man. Trying to find people who have installed light bars inside the grill but haven't had any luck. Tires only rub slightly if I'm turning going up steep inclines
