Hey guys...searched the forum with little success. Can you guys with experience with these Tahoe's tell me if I can go to a 265/75/R16 without any issues of rubbing or anything? Will it be OK with stock gears? Also...I am looking to go with Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo 2's or Firestone Destination A/T's...any advice?
I do live in Wisconsin were the winters can be brutal.
Thanks, as always for helping the new guys!!! I really appreciate it.
Take care.

So what is the risk going to a 285? Rubbing issues, or performace issues? i know MPG will decrease...any other negatives?

unknown at this time.
mainly you are just indirectly changing your gearing effecting power to the ground, actual vehicle speed compared to speedo and MPG.
