Re: wheels and tires

Btw the front tires are 245/60/15 and the rear has 275/60/15.
The perfect setup for me with the wheels and the bagged burb.
I hope it helps.

Re: wheels and tires

Wheels and tires are such a personal preference thing. I prefer 15 inch wheels with some sidewall. But every once in a while I see someone's burb or truck on this site with big wheels and I begrudgingly admit (heh) that they look pretty darn good.

15"s are a bit too small for such a tall bodied truck (i say with much trepidation, because i love 15x10 classic muscle car look)

i think this 20/22 combo looks really good, but i would be curious to see an 18/20 combo...to give more sidewall beef to help out the tall-suburban body look
