Yet another lift question

[brknhal0]

Hi All,

Thanks to all the posts from the members on this forum. I have learned quite a bit from all of the posts on the differing levels/lifts that are available and the before and after pictures. After researching all of these posts many, many times, I have decided to go with the SuspensionMaxx 2.5 inch in front and 1 inch in the rear. From what I have seen, this will level my 2015 Tahoe LTZ nicely while giving it a little bit of lift overall.

Although there are many differing tire sizes listed in these threads that I can use as examples, I was wondering if someone has installed the Ridge Grappler 35/12.5/R22's. If so, has there been any rubbing that was compensated for due to the width of these tires?

I am confident that the 33/12.5/R22's will easily fit as well as 295/55/R22's.

My desired end result is to fill up as much of the wheelwell as possible without having to do much trimming. Keep in mind that I will be cutting the front Mack-Truck-Looking air dam to look like the ppv air dam.

Thanks in advance for the input.

Ridge grapplers dont have 295’s in the 22” wheels. However, the 285/55/22 is the same height as the 35”, yet an inch thinner. I would highly recommend that size over the 35”.

Just turn your wheel and look how close the stock tires are to rubbing. A 2 1/2” level really wont gain you anymore room for a wider tire... you will still be very close to rubbing that same spot.

These are 285/45/22 nitto’s on my wifes rig with a 1.5” level. I cant imagine a tire that is another inch wider would not rub, even with another inch of lift.

It would surely be very close.

I cant wait to see the results here...ive been wanting to do trimming and go taller than our 285/50/22, but haven't gotten to it.
