smallest tire you can put on these would be 18's, as long as they are 6 lug GM 18's, esclades,tahoes,etc.......

i need some for mine, we had over 30 inches of snow this winter, i put 12 sandbags in the back and took it easy, and the 20's didnt have any problems really...

Cool deal man. I looked at that truck on eBay. Thought about buying it then one around town showed up for sale. Same exact truck only the one I bought has 78k on the miles. I like it a lot. It's just my dd tho. I might eventually do somethin with it but not right now. Anyways, so are these trucks posi from the factory? If so what kind of unit is it?

G80 3:73. I think that is stock. Mine is my dd as well. I'm ready for it to get here. I'm starting to regret having it shipped. I've heard bad things about the company I hired. Like they never pick up your truck. I guess tomorrow we will see how it goes.

That would explain why mine only spins duals when it wants to...that's not good about the shipping. Hope all goes well.

as far as the wheels are concerned you need to run 17+ but the stock 20's look AWESOME i had a set of stock 16's that i got on craigslist when i lived in NY & they didn't fit ...no big deal bought em for 100 sold em for 120

welcome to the fam! i saw that truck on ebay looks like it was taken care of...enjoy it!
