We have been looking for wheels to replace the painted 18’s that came on our z71. I think we have decided to go with 22s, but I haven’t seen a lot of white Tahoe’s with wheels oher than the factory 20”. I will attach the pics below and throw your opinions out there. Both are oem take offs, the chrome I can get for 1500 and the black for 1850.

Or the other option is factory 20 oem snowflakes off a 2017 Yukok with new Goodyear’s for 1100. Which would probably give me a compromise of look and still retain a decent ride.

At minimum I'd get 22's, 20's just look so small on the new body style, even your shorter wheel base Tahoe. Wheel size is very subjective though.

Also, Reps are heavy wheels (as are stock wheels). You can get an aftermarket cast wheel in 22" x 9/9.5 that would probably be 4-5lbs. lighter per wheel and have a better offset than the equivalent size in a Factory Rep wheel for about the same money.

Go black and go big. Looks better. If you buy high quality tires, 24” wheels look the best. It’s a big truck! It’ needs big wheels.

Saw a white burb with 22 snowflakes today. It was pretty nice. I would talk to tony from NorCal and get the 24" replica flakes in chrome.

Tell me more about your giovanna's? Hub centric? Lug Centric? Offset? Weight? I dumped my 24" KMC D2s because the vibration was driving me crazy...as was the rubbing. I'm riding on 22" Caddy Platinum wheels at the moment but I have a set of 2 Crave No47 inbound. +15 offset, hub centric. Going with Falcon tires this time. The Nitto 420s were too f#¢king loud.

Snowflakes, all day, everyday. Don't let your Tahoe go around looking like it's on spares. Do 22s.

But I was called an old man with the chrome wheels

Was told I need to “ murder it out” with black wheels
Sorry I just don’t like that look B25206A2-0633-4A0D-99B9-4D74D27B5217.jpeg

My shiny 22’s came with the vehicle and I couldn’t decide so I went black for winter (no pics). Rough for winter, clean for summer.
