35 x 12.50's on 00-06 Yukon/Tahoe with key's and spacers?

[Sir-Lancelot]

I did search, but did not find anyone with this set up.

I have seen 2 of these now on the road. A Tahoe and A Sierra. 20's with 35 x 12.50 on each. They do not look too stuffed and I really want to do this to my Yukon. Very seldom do I go off road, I mainly just want the look.
Anyone here done this and how does it ride?

I was told as long as you keep the factory offset on the rims and trim the front a little bit you are good to go.

Anyone?
Thanks.

No one?

Guess I will be the Guinea pig next month then. lol

Keep us updated man, If needed you can always trim. I think you should be alright..

Sir-Lanc my neighbor has a yukon xl with the 33-12.5/18 on it. He has a lot of positive backspace and only rubbs a little on the frame in front when at full lock. I would like to see pictures of yours when your done. I'm considering the same wheel/tire as you but only if keys will clear it entirely. My vote is go for it and get those pics up as soon as you can.

Hey thanks for the replies.
There is a car dealer in my area that is doing it to some of their trucks so I would say if it was a big problem they would not be doing it. He had to trim the bottom plastic piece on the front bumper, but thats not a big deal to me. He said as long as I went with the factory rim offset and width, I can fit 35 x 12.5 x 20's with no rubbing on any of the 00 and up. 2" keys and spacers only and it looks badass! Does not look stuffed at all and side by side with a new factory truck it sits a good bit higher.

I think they look great on there and I am going to do it next month after I get my commission check. I will put up some pictures of my Yukon XL and my impression of the set up for you guys. I am going with a 20" black Rockstars or Monsters with the 35" Cooper STT's. I think this will look good against the Summit white and the taller stance will help with how long the XL is, IMO.

Keep up updated, should look nasty but plan on crankin with 35s. I hope you went with 2"s spacers too

Yea Ima go with 2" F&R and some turns on the torsion bars to level it out.

Any upward progress??? Pics please!!!

You'll need lots of positive offset on a 2x8.5" wheel to clear a 35, thankfully the coopers will only measure 34.5 but I think you're gonna have to trim a good bit to clear them effectively. Be sure to post pics when you get everything installed.

 

[Sir-Lancelot]

I am going to find out soon enough. lol
Will be getting my bonus from work in a couple weeks, so then I just need to pick a day to be without my truck.

From what I have seen, the only thing they are trimming is the black plastic piece on the front bumper. Looks sick.

I will put up some pics and my thoughts when it's done.

Get a nice set of factory 20's off of something newer, throw keys on it and 35's. You will have no rubbing issues at all. Rough country sells a kit for $189 that consists of keys, 4 shocks, and 3 inch blocks for the rear, as well as everything to install it. I don't know if the SUV's come stock with larger blocks but my Z71 silverado had a factory 2" block.

Thank you!

Word to the wise, when it comes to the wife it's better to ask forgiveness then permission. lol

 

[oak510_tahoe]

looks good! I ended up sticking to OEM tire size but chose some meaty looking tires to get my "Urban Assault Vehicle" look. lol

 

[s2kstephen]

What offset/backspacing did your order?
