24x14 Offroad Wheels On An AT4

Maybe, but I will certainly try my best to get these to fit by whatever means that I can. Before I bought these particular rims, I already knew what would be involved when I took on this project - so that doesn't scare or worry me.

You could put a 12” lift on there and would still need to remove a good portion of your fenders

With a leveling kit, well, you will just need to remove more lolllll

I ended up ordering the 3" Ready Lift SST today. The salesman said they should arrive at their warehouse in two weeks, and I should get mine a week later. I know things don't always pan out like you envision, so I'm probably looking at late July/early August for a best case scenario.

After I install the lift kit, then I'll face whatever challenges I come across to further get the wheels on.

Christmas came early today, and I got the lift kit. I wasn't expecting it to arrive so early, but it did. I already made an appointment to install it next weekend, so I should start to see some results.

I did another test fit of the wheels with the new RBP tires today, and it's a huge difference in clearing the bumper/fender. So, that's another huge plus. Once I add the lift kit and test fit the wheel again, I'll have a more accurate estimate of what I'll need to do to the fenders once and for all.

Here's a link to the test fitment (pre-lift kit):

You are cutting metal aren’t you…..?

I will, once I have an idea of how much of the metal I'll need to cut. That's only after I have the lift installed and wheels on to do another test fitting.

I only did a test fit today because I had to return to the tire shop to pick up the original Atturo tires I bought, and I had some free time. I didn't know about the lift arriving today until after I made it back home. Otherwise, I would have had them install the kit right then and there.

Would you consider more lift so you would not have to cut? Or would you need an extreme amount of lift to avoid cutting?
I'm all about cutting cars/trucks up but man, your Tahoe sure is purty.

I don't want an overly tall SUV, so I'd rather cut, cut, cut away if the lift kit doesn't "cut it".

I'm with you, not into the tall SUV look. And with those wheels/tires it is going to look on point when it's all set.
Definitely post all the cutting. Will you be doing it?

It depends on how much cutting is involved. There didn't appear to be much cutting towards the front bumper when we tested it at stock height, but we'll see once the lift is on. It may be less.

The rear fender and the step will definitely need some cutting. There are bolts holding the end cap on the step, so I imagine it can be unscrewed. From there, trim some of the step, drill a new hole and bolt it back on.
