Hey Guys, I am trying to figure out which wheel I would like best on the Tahoe. I know I want black, I know I want between 22-24", and I know I want either the GM replica Cv98 wheels, or the KMC Slides. I like the classy yet bad assy look. I would just like to see what they look like on the tahoe. I have found a few pictures of the slides, but not too many of the Cv98's, especially on a Tahoe. If you guys have any other ideas as well that would be much appreciated. Let me see what you got!

CV98 in a 24". Too many people are running Slides (not that its bad, its a good looking wheel, just been around for a LONG time). 2/3-4 Drop and it will look insane.

Lots of Sierras running the cv98s and they look similar to my current OE wheels. I personally like the slides.

I assumed, I'm not worried about oem or not, I just like the look. I've found a few reputable places that have them, but their prices vary a lot.
Get with norcalss. Think he has the better price and warranty. I got mine from oe wheels llc. They look good from a distance, but the coating (black chrome) looks like it has runs in it and the center caps faded within 3 months. Paid about a grand for them

Hmm that sucks, I purchased a set online last night from a dealer that said he sold OE and OE replicas. I figured the quality had to be comparable at the least. I ended up going with the 22" wheels with 295/35/22's. I will put pics up once they are mounted.

Did any of you have to adjust the speedo, if so what's the best way of doing it?

I assumed, waiting on the cash for a tuner. Way to do it without? I'm a diesel guy, so that way is the easiest way I know how as well.

I went with 275/45 hankooks on 22x9 +31 offset
Nice, well I'm anxious now, they should be delivered within a couple days. Do you have more pictures of yours? I plan on waxing them before they go on, then using the stock rims and tires for winter wheels. Midwest winters are so rough on vehicles.

I don't know what you have or have not seen of mine so here's a few. In the last one you can see how the center caps discolored. Disregard that they're dirty in most my pics
