see the first thing you need to decide is what look you want for youre ride. are you going to put every chrome thing aavailabel for the tahoes, then yeah those rims will work. but if you want a sporty look then you are looking in the wrong place. first decide if you want bling or sporty or just a few touches. one thing i see is that you want a six spoke rim right?

Yea im looking for 6 spokes. Im not really looking for bling or sporty maybe something in between. i want something that doesnt rub up against the frame but looks good and functional on the car as well.

Then any of the wheels I listed above with a 30MM offset and 6 x 5.5 bolt pattern will work.
295/35/24 size tires, and this will give you no rubbing at all!

my buddy has those exact rims on his blue NBS.. looks like crap.

I have the u2-55's (+30mm on 305/35/24).. I'm lowered a bit, and with a few tweaks on the driver side front, I barely rub.

Hey Titanium, was it you that was ripping off the sidewall of your tire due to rubbing?:hands:

Yeah.. notice I said I "tweaked it" to stop the rubbing...

I meant the fender took the rubber off that was causing the problem lol ;)




I took a solid 1/4" off of the very corner or the tire.. all the way around :(

and I have pulled the wheel off.. hammered the metal lip up a bit.. modded the plastic fenders.. and called it a day

I've also learned how to slow down and make turns the right way... I rarely hear it rub now.

you're gonna rub at first no matter what.. I had 18's with a beefy tire and they rubbed. You just need to take the time under the truck to make sure the inner plastic fender is cut to the travel of the tire...

where you get in trouble like I did.. is having a big positive offset. look how my tire lines up FLUSH with my fender.. when the suspension compresses.. the tire dosn't quite tuck into the wheel well.. the rubber grabs the fender.. cuts the shit outta the tire.. and pulls the fender out. I've managed to bend mine to where it JUST passes..

I was looking at the Boss 330 just the other day. Very attractive rim. Not busy, not blingy - classy and sporty (IMHO).
