Re: Ideal tire size ?

What did you end up going with? Also do you have a write up about the Tahoe seats you modified? Random I know but I saw them in the what seats did you use thread.

On the wheels I went with the Ridler 650 grey , 20x10 (275-45) rear zero offset
20x8 (245-45) fronts zero offset
As far as the seat we took a little out so it sits lower than the rear window , removed child restraint hooks , and bolstered the seat a little and two toned the seats other than that the seats are as functional as they was in the back of the Tahoe except they are fixed mounted all the way back . I like it .

Didn't mean to digress from subject, but I love the color of your truck. What's the paint finish called?

It's a 2012 Grand Sport Corvette color , Carlisle Blue . The actual paint code calls it something else . This is the color on the dealer sheet . It's really pops in the sun light and takes on a silverfish color under street lamps
