Wheel upgrade question

[finman]

I have a 2011 Suburban and I am trying to decide on going with 20" rims w/ 275-55-20 tires or 22" rims with 285-45-22 tires.
The truck now has 17" stock rims and tires on it.
I really like the look of the 22" rims. Besides the obvious price difference between 20 & 22's, when going with 22's, has anyone noticed a considerable loss in mileage and ride versus the 17" factory package?

Thanks,

Fin

I've noticed a little difference in ride, but not so much that I consider it a problem. I'll be running 17's in the winter and currently running 22's, and both have their advantages and issues. If I were you I'd go 22; if you did it like me you'd get 20's, then upgrade three months later.

Hit up SuperchargedSS....He's a vendor on here and has a nice choice of OEM 22's to choose from if you're going for the OEM look. His prices can't be beat.

what is the best way to handle the tire pressure sensors. Transfer the ones in the original 17" rims or buy new ones?

Since your truck is so new, I would transfer.

I was in the same dilemma as you till 2 days ago.
