Default 19's or 20's on SUV

This may be off "Lexus" topic but im just asking peoples opinions on different models of 19's or 20's for SUV's. Im looking for some for my 2000 Tahoe. Has anyone seen anything they especially like. Im looking for a good looking semi-street semi-offroad setup. I want the bling but I also want versatility. Thanks

Mike,

I've been selling a lot of the Antera Type 301s lately-- a wheel which I really like. Antera is an Itailan company which make very good quality wheels.

Of course I also like the HRE SUV line. What is your price range? Thanks.

You might as well go 20s on a big American SUV- lots more tire choices. I'd recommend 20x10 with 295/45-20 or 305/50-20 if you're leaving the truck stock height.

Here's an Escalade with 22x10 HRE 648R:
