Hello good people,

  I recently picked up an 06 Avalanche.

Question: How big of a tire can I go on a 17" offset wheel? Or how big can i go with a 3"lift? I plan on getting rid of the wheels and tires on there now. Can't stand em. Thank you for any feedback.
 
check here this is the section on wheel and rims

where are you located and what model do you have
 
What wheels are you looking to go with?  a 17x9 -6 offset will have a very aggressive stance, with the tires sticking out past the fenders.  With a 3 " lift you could probably run a 17x9 -6et with a 285/70r17 or a 33x12.50r17 with very little trimming.  I know someone that ran a 35 with a 3" lift but he had to do a lot of trimming.
 
Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it. I do like the aggressive stance. I feel the tires sticking out past the fenders give it that monster truck look. Are there pros and cons with this?
