Damn where’d you find that beauty? I’ve been looking hard for examples of those wheels in that exact size. And you found it on the same model vehicle and everything haha.

After seeing that i’m thinking the MTZ P3 in a 36x15.50 on those 20x9s with some spacers to get them out a little
Idk if you have a Facebook, but this truck is on the Tahoe Nation facebook page. He just lifted it last weekend. I think he's gonna be wrapping it a bronze color soon.

I always wanted to run the MTZs in a 36x15.50 but I don't think I'd want to daily something that big lol. Not sure I'd wanna put 15.50 tires on a 9" wheel, that's pushing it a little too far. A 12.50 is alot on a 9" wheel.

I was kiddin anyway

I don’t have a front drive shaft right now and I have stretched mud tearz on brometal buttholes, trucks useless. Still tows 7000lbs no problem and runs 80 on the highway straight as an arrow, I also daily it 60miles to work. But useless.

I should set my truck on fire and roll it down a hill
Then I could trade it for a Coupe de Ville!

I got facebook Ill have to check it out. And yeah I am a little iffy on the daily part of 15.50s but what the heck I’ll run it for awhile and then change if I hate it. I’m set on that tire at this point just need to pick a wheel and then order them, I’d like to do it this month or next.

I found some references of people running 15.50s on 9wides but was still wondering if it’s ok or about the same risk as stretched tires? The tires like 3.25” wider on each side.



Still looks good tho....homo

No.....No homo! Get it right Pete.

I thought it was extra homo :p

I’ve run 12.50s on a x9 and they’re fine. Definitely would want AT LEAST a x10 for a 15.50. Would not feel comfortable with them on a x9. Plus they’ll wear weird if nothing else

Hold on let me put the drool back in my mouth and clean the keyboard lol. I’d love to have built mine to that level this time around but as a daily and not having a back up car I felt it wasn’t smart and ain’t gonna lie neither did my wallet lol

And thanks bud, I’m definitly loving it, gonna add 36s and the 1.5 bl soon. I’ll be up 3.75” from where it’s at now cause my tires about bald. But I got the look I wanted and damn the combo of Bilsteins 5165s, skyjacker springs, and Cognito lift ride like a dream, it’s so smooth even my fiancée says it’s better than stock and miles better than the leveling kit.


Whacha talkin bout Willis?

US Duramax,..My preference of what a truck should be.

I hear that, definitly a sick ass setup. I’d love a truck like that. I like all kinds, ones that are just pretty and not exactly setup for function and ones that are setup to do work but still look good. I want to build a bog truck, big agricultural tires, 2.5tons, 600ci big block, id love to do a reg cab short bed with motor in the back.
