Hey all,
I enjoy reading these forums and seeing what everyone is doing with there rides thought I’d go ahead and give it a try. I just picked up a clean OBS 99 GMC Suburban K1500 and I was wondering will newer 20” takeoffs fit without any rubbing? If they do rub what can I do to make them fit level/lift/spacers?

yes they will fit i put 18s on my 1992 with zero issues. the problem comes with tires. i would get close to a stock tire size as possible. Some guys fit 33s on it with minimal trimming.

Tire calculator, this size should work with no rubbing, someone on here has those 20s on an OBS 2 door. I couldn’t find it

I would guess 285's would fit fine, 305's might have rubbing at full lock which can usually be addressed by a little trimming or zip ties.
but that's pure speculation

I have 285/75/R16 on my 1998 2 door tahoe 4wd. They rub just a little at full lock. Not certain how a suburban ride height compares...
