what would be cheapest/easiest is to buy some billet aluminum wheel spacers/adaptors on ebay. they'll run you about $130 for a pair, convert any lug pattern (two piece), and given that the specs of the tahoe rims is 20x8.5 with a 6" backspacing, you'll need a minimum of 2.5", max of 3.75" of spacer to make the wheels look good in the fenderwells and keep them from rubbing anything. i have a set of 3" ones on my truck, (rims are 20x8.5 with 5.25" bs) have never had a problem, and the look you get is amazing.
