Which stock wheels look best????
Alright guys,
Im about to buy a set of stock wheels which will allow me to take my 22's off and sell them so i can get the money to go toward my next set of 22's. Ill be keeping the stockers as a spare set in the garage for road trips or whatever. Im choosing between:
1. 17" Escalade wheels (Machined finish)
2. 17" Chevy aluminum wheels (5 spoke kind)
3. 17" Avalanche wheels
4. 17" Denali wheels (polished) If i can find a set for the same price.
Alright, also, will the stock 255/70/17 tire fit fine with a 4/7 drop on my crewcab? Would it be better to go with a shorter tire than that?
LMk guys! Thanks for all your help!!!

Personally I like the 17" Avy wheels. I ran them for a good while on two different trucks I had. I would step it down to like a 265/55-60 though... those stock wheels all have a lot of BS so you'll be good as far as tucking goes but I would run a shorter tire just for rubbing issues up front...

I found a set of machined esky wheels with 255/60/17 Toyo tires with 5000 miles on them for a very good price. I personally would have liked to stick with the chevy truck wheels or the avy wheels myself justto keep it simple and i kinda like those a little better but im thinkin for the price and since they already have the tires im thinkin would be better, i should just get these.
I like the denali wheels alot but they are hard to find and they are polished so they will be hard to keep clean.
