I am wanting a 3.5 lift with some new tires and wheels. I am pretty sure I want to get black wheels but not sure what exact size or style I want. I know I want MT tires. I am a visual person. So I was kind of thinking maybe people could post some pictures of their setups? PICTURES WOULD HELP ALOT!
JUST DON'T KNOW IF I WANT TO DO 22S AND 35S OR 24S AND 35S.

Stick with 33s unless you get a big lift you can fit 12 wides with 33s with a 3” lift and minor trimming don’t let a local scam artist I mean shop try to charge you 500$ for a install get the 40-60$ Amazon special with your 10$ harbor freight socket set and jack and throw it on it’ll take about a hour or so if even that long depending on if you do a upper or lower leveling kit. The lower can be done super quick and easy without even taking the tires off just undo the bottom strut bolts and sway bar links jack the front pop the spacer in and tighten it back up if you got any questions let me know.
Wheels are 24x14 and 35/15.50 8” lift
20x12 and 33/12.50 3” lift
24x10 and 33/12.50 3.5” lift

Bro thanks a lot for your input. I’m lifting mine 3.5” and will stick the 33s. The 35s look a lot better on 22s tho
You can fit 35s depending on how wide a wheel you get I only got the 33s because I got em for such a good deal when they first came out like 800-900$ for all 4 tires shipped

Thanks for the visuals. Now Im seriously considering the 24s over the 22s lol. Im getting the satin black snowflake replicas with the 33s. I like the big tire look. I'm just hesitant on the 35s because im not crazy about the negative offset rims. The pics does give me a better idea. I should be finished with the lift by friday and get the rims/tires put on friday afternoon. I'll be sure to post photos

If your doing snowflakes you will be fine with 35s but that’s up to you you shouldn’t scrub but maybe On the control arms if there aftermarket if so throw a .25-.5” wheel spacer on the front .
I’ve always had better mileage and more power with the 33s cause I’ve never swapped my gears out or anything unless you go over 37s usually the stock 3.73 gears will be ok

Hey, I just bought a 2010 Tahoe LT and it has the 1.5” leveling kit with bilstien 1500 shocks sitting on 285/70r/17 nitto tires. I wanted to put a 3.5” lift on it. What lift are you using ? Would you mind dropping a link?
