Looking to upgrade my 2003 Tahoe wheels/tires to an 18-inch wheel and looking for suggestions.
Also wondering why the amazon sellers say these newer 18s don’t fit a 2003. Seem like I’ve seen pictures of these/similar wheels on the older body style Tahoes.

They will fit. Tell the seller they’re clueless and you’re taking your money somewhere else. If they’re this confused about lug pattern then imagine how they’ll be if something is wrong with you order .

You can use take-offs from later model Silverados and other full size GM SUVs; I have 18" 2015 Silvy takeoffs on my NBS. There is some compensation in the wheel offset for the wider wheels but in this case it split the difference so no rubbing if you use a tire with a similar overall diameter.

I would recommend doing some basic comparisons in the wheel offsets.
