Got my Escalade rims and tires mounted!
I posted earlier that I bought them off of this forum, they're in real good shape. I went from the stock 255/70R16's to 265/70R17's, the new rims and tires are 1.5" taller. They have a diameter of 31.6" inches and the stock tires were 30.05". I set my HPP for 31.5" since it only has .25" increments, they look good and fill in the wheel well alot more. They are also 9 lbs heavier each than the stock rims I had, I'm sure I lost some performance from them being bigger. I'll do some 0-60 runs and post them in the performance section when I figure it out. I can still spin them pretty easy though, I pulled into the local eatery and saw a few friends, gave it about 1/2 gas and left two 10' black strips.

Re: Got my Escalade rims and tires mounted!
I just got the denali set that they were selling yesterday. I was expecting the goodyear tire on the rims but they had the michelin cross terrains which is what I've been looking for. I put them on yesterday and they look nice and rid sooo much better that the generals. But hey I got 35000 miles out of them. Now I have to wait for the rain to stop so I can wash the truck an see what they really look like.
