IMO I like the 20's with 35's or 22's with 37's. I want to do them on my Blazer after I do a lift.

Re: 20's or 22's with all terrain tires

Most all the pics I have of 4x Suburbans with 20 and ^ wheels are running 46" and taller tires. I've seen a lot of Blazers with 20's though. (about the same look) Personal opinion, I don't like the way the 20/22's with 36-37's drive. That's just me though. More sidewall makes a HUGE difference!

On a side note, I don't understand the 33x12.5X22 though...

Ok, I guess this one isn't too bad... If I do see some Suburbans with 20's I'll post em up for ya, or maybe some Blazers too just for a close idea.

Re: 20's or 22's with all terrain tires

Thanks for the pics. I'm only thinking of going with the 33" 20's or 22's because I'm not going to be doing much off roading if any at all and with this size tire there's a chance I will still be able to fit my truck in the garage

I think I'm just tired of all the Powerstroke and Dodge guys around here in Oregon that run a huge lift and the tiny tires.

But that silver Blazer doesn't look bad.

Being able to still keep it in the garage is always a good thing!! It was 23 this morning when I let my dog out! For us that's pretty cold.

Didn't you just recently buy your Suburban, for Christmas I think I read?

Those 33's I posted are $1600 a set, that seems kinda high for a 33. That's way more than a set of 40's on a 16's or 17's.

I know the tires are way too big for what you're looking for... but.

Re: 20's or 22's with all terrain tires

Have 37x13.5-20 Kuhmo KL71's on 20x10 wheels on my Van...



Balanced with DynaBeads and they are almost silent. I had 265/75-16 Cooper STT's on prior to those and they made more noise.

↑↑↑ That van is killer! There is a company here in Salem that builds those, similar to the Quigley's.
