I am still pretty new to the Avalanche world. I have a 2005 Av LT and for some reason it came with 265/70R16s. The current wheel/tire combo is 245/75R17 steels and they are ready for the dump. I did notice that the current wheels throw off the speedometer a tad. This I do not mind if there is a simple way to adjust the speedometer being thrown off. I think I sort of want my cake and to eat it here but I definitely want to replace the 17s with something bigger than factory, but I still want alot of rubber wall. I do not want to look like I am running low pros on a pick up. I also do not want to have to lift, although, I would be willing to do a leveling kit. I don't want any rubbing or have to do any trimming to fit my wheels. I also do not want to affect ride quality and risk any damage to my vehicle over time by putting to big of wheels on. I guess with all of this said, my question is, what is the best wheel/tire combo I could go with to accomplish my wants? I was thinking about going no bigger than 18 inch wheels and have no idea on tire size to match. If 18 is to much to fit my wants let me know, but first and foremost, I want to maintain that factory sort of smooth ride, and to not risk any damage down the road to my vehicle by putting on rediculous wheels.
