Another option is Goin with those in replicas already in gloss black. I had a coworker of mine that wanted new rims and tires and I showed em those with some toyo open country MT 33x12.50R20's and he immediately bought em lol. If you want some pics lemme know I can upload one if ya want.

I had that size on my avalanche when I had the factory LTZ 20's and it rubbed on stock height. I had the Nitto terra grapplers. It rubbed at full lock in reverse btw.

Honestly if you want better performance for winter and snow driving, it be better to go with 17s. They will allow you to use tires that have more sidewall and is better for biting into deep snow and slush. I run 17 in winter and the 22 in summer

Shit, that's what I was afraid of. $500 plus whatever I can talk him down has me itchin to buy them just bc of the price tho and then try to flip them.

Ok. I have the stock 17's on it right now and wanted to run a 20" rim whenever I'm not running 22"s. my wanting 20" rims was based purely off looks and me assuming the handling in the little bit of snow we get would be fine with 20's with a 4x4 Tahoe. What do you think?

I had Nitto 420s that size on my 20s and it rubbed a tiny bit on the liner ... mostly if I was turning into or out of an uphill driveway at a sharp angle.

ETA: Keep in mind those are street tires tho ... A/T tires might rub a little bit more.

Good point, thanks man.

I appreciate everyone's feedback. Looks like I should just buy 22's and keep my stocks
