I have a 2017 Suburban with the factory 20s (275/55/20 tires), and looking to run a set of black 22inch GM snowflake wheels. I've seen a few pics of those wheels and they always looks a little too narrow and "tucked in" to the wheel wells (pics attached) which seems to make the ride look top-heavy. I don't know the offset of the wheels or tire sizes in the pics, but Custom Offsets seems to want to recommend anything from a 305/45 to 285/45, and they offer the wheel itself in 22x9. I'd like a good full wheel with a wide stance and no rubbing.

 

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

285/45/22 is what they come stock with if they have 22s.

Appreciate the feedback. Do you happen to know if you can really fit a 305 on that kind of a setup without rubbing?

A lot of people do run 305s, so I would assume it is ok. Some big name tire shops won’t mount 305s tho.

305/45 r22 is better for a 10" rim

plus like kwOH said...most shops wont install if rim is outside manufacturer specs now

Thanks for the feedback. The owner (dealership) of the ride in the pics replied and said the tires are 285/45/22s. Am I the only one who thinks they looked tucked in and the ride appears top heavy on those?

Maybe in pics, I can see what your talking about, but 285s are fine, and as far a top heavy, thats just wheel gap, you can always lower it.

Appreciate the feedback. I'm beginning to think it's just how the 22s look to me and now I'm leaning towards 24s. Visually they just seem to work better due to the size of the vehicle IMO.

      And to top it off finally.......................these small GM LS engines are designed to SPIN!!!!!  Why choke them down to just off idle for cruising.  Why/how the "bean counters" have influenced the "engineering department" at GM is beyond me.   They took a solid platform of an engine and turned into a joke in OEM form!!!

      Atlas,   Then following your logic we can't believe any story that the MSM produces? I mean it's documented they heavily donate to Democrat candidates. Vote Democrat in high percentages. Many MSM talents are married to Democrat politicians, Gov. employees. That goes for on-air and off, personalities and reporters. So they would all be biased and nothing they produce is to be believed in your mind?   Again the article simply was about ways AI can be used for pricing products. Nothing discounted current situations as a factor.    Again keep looking through your left/right lenses. I don't live my life that way.   And as a heads up this thread will be cleaned up again as much of this is off topic and is receiving

      So you're saying toss the baby out with the bathwater? @txab posted article was her take on how AI can be used to manipulate pricing as it already does and has been rebuked by the judiciasry in housing. How AI can be and is used to maximize refinery or even Amazon operations all of which are true but because she is who she is; that makes what she says about what is true, false? Is that something akin to Pre-justice aka prejudice?    Look, I'm first in line to approach all information with caution just because we live in a world where people like to lie about someone or something with such a straight face and in such volume that it makes digging to the truth wearisome. Meaning I understand the skepticisms but if I were to toss out everything a person is for a view they hold then my pool of people to draw wisdom from would be non-existent and I'd be forced to reinvent the wheel daily. Not practical.    "Be innocent as a dove but as cautious as a serpent."    Test each word. Every good lie is part truth or no one would believe it. Find the truth in it and reject what isn't.    On this one, AI is being used to do what has been done by hand for hundreds of years already but at such speed, the point of a computer, that it is more easily monetized. This one wasn't that hard a lift.    I wrote a few formulas in a Lotus 123 program decades ago, a series of linked Macros actually, that allowed a daily inventory to be turned into a running P&L and production plan. Something that took three departments a week to assemble now took the time it takes to input the 'daily changes' in inventory. Later that was ungraded to the more powerful Excel program an and integrated with bar code scanning, inventory to supply was done once per shift. It had a huge impact on production scheduling, Seamless interruption flexibility, inventory error reduction, raw materials cost effective utilization and scrap reduction. Huge improvement in the bottom line. I spent months on that and AI could have done it in minutes. So yes, it not only can be used, they would be foolish to not try. The legality, ethics and morality are not the domain of AI. Humans need to keep a reign on it.
