Default 07 Tahoe on 22's, but which tires

I am getting ready to order my Tahoe next week and need some help with the tires for the wheels. Which tire last the longest in a 305/45/22? I will try to get some pics up when I get the wheels on. I might lower it with a 2"/3" kit but dont know which kit is the best any opinions? Thanks, Kyle

Kumho i have found to be a well priced, good tread life, quality tire. Go to www.tirerack.com and compare and review different tires on that site, good tire buying "resouce"

I've got Hankook Ventus (I think thats how you spell it). They are good truck/suv street tires. Real quiet and smooth on the road.

Nitto 420's... they are badass tires and they look and handle awesome... go with some 305's... and you may want to think about going lower than a 2/3.... most people who put 2/3 kits on their Tahoes end upregretting it because they want the 3/5 as soon as they see it.

have you seen the new tahoes? the front airdamn only sits about 7 inches off the cround, max. i think a 2/3 will look sharp on 22s. more would be nice but i just think those new ones sit low as it is.

I'd go with the Nitto 420S. I have 305/40/22 on my Denali. They look and handle great!

nope.. I have only seen pictures... I have been in Iraq since last year LOL.... I was kind of judging off the older ones... I will take your guys' word for it if you think a 2/3 is good.. I have a dendancy to want mine a little lower than most... just personal preference.

one more vote for hankooks. Can't beat them for the price. Mine have been wearing exceptionally well.
