nice hoe, really like ur setup, how are those kumho tires? road noise?

 

[bowtiefreak]

Thanks.

They are ok, I barely drive the truck but I like the look and the road noise seems minimal

[I go every where]

1996 tahoe with 6"RCX Lift and a 3" body lift sitting on my baby 33/12.5/r15s. My rims are 15x10 with an extreme offset haha. My stock keys are at stock height. Last pic was before I cleaned the mud off the frame.

I like it. It is crying for bigger tires though

So am I haha. I should be able to squeeze 38's under there no problem, right? Im also gonna gear down to 4.56s.

maybe a 37 is a better option....depends on he trimming you want to do. Those rims with tall tires may rub a good bit. A beefy 36 is what I would do with the 4.56 gears

Well I have been keeping an eye on those 37" used military tires that sell for really cheap but I can not find a set of 16.5 rims for a chevy 6 lug

 

[bowtiefreak]

stick with the 15s and find a set of 36s (Try for a 13.5wide or so), I think you might be happy. I think 38s would be tight, plus they would need a 5.13 gear I think.

I have about 8" lift with teh DC lift and run a x9 rim. I want a 37 badly. OR a 20x12 on 35s

have ran about 3 sets of the Bias ply 36's. Most I paid for the tires were 225 for a set of 4 with about 90% Tread. I really really like them. The wheels i always buy from summit, I go the 9.75 width. Had a set on the dodge truggy I sold and I have a set on the 83 grand wagoneer.

Run 3in body lift gonna go higher since 33s rub when rough offroading

What is a bias ply tire exactly? Why are they so cheap and where do you get them?

I usually get them off of craigslist, or a couple military tire places online. The ones I run and like are the 36" Goodyear Wrangler OZ's
