DeLeon - check with somebody knowledgeable at your dealership about the chrome wheels (like a senior service advisor). Southern Cal market is a similar urban market to the Bay Area with a lot of custom wheels installed by dealer and therefore a lot of take off wheel inventory. My local dealer has too many OEM wheels of all types which they can sell at attractive prices.

This topic was discussed like in September. I remember someone being told that the 33 in. tires were either to heavy or to big for the chrome rims. Anyone else remember this being discussed or the outcome of that topic. I can't remember.

We put the adventure package tires on the factory chrome rims all the time, with no problems.

You can now get chrome rims with the adventure package from the factory. On a non-Adventure H3 the chrome wheel option is code QB9. For anyone ordering, the chrome wheel option on the adventure package is code QB8.

Neo is running 35" Toyos (LT315/75R 16) on stock H3 wheels with no problem. I just ordered a set myself. Check out his thread with info & many pics:

Aggie is correct. You can order the chrome wheels with adventure now. Its also on the Hummer site when you build.

I'd buy the chrome wheels if I knew where to buy the original ones... here is the picture of the H3 I felt in love with, that's why I want the chrome wheels so bad...

I like the same one but in white. How big are those tires in that Pic? They look like 33" (285/75R16) ??

So Can I get this wheel/tire set without the adventure/off road pkg? When I built on the hummer site, I had to order the off road pkg to get these wheels :confused:

You could probably get the dealer to do it. But they'll most likely nail you on the cost. It might be more cost effective to just get the adv. pack.

Isn't there a big difference in the ride between the two? Stiffer suspension with the adventure/off road pkg?

Re: Chrome wheels + 33 inch Tires
 
the 33s on a non-adventure suspension can give a little bit of sway feeling around turns...that's one reason why the adv suspension is different.

Haven't driven a non-adv. H3 so I couldn't tell you the difference in ride. Best to test drive both yourself to compare.

I practically gave away my factory chrome wheels, and bought 18" chrome wheels with approx 34" x 13" wide tires. Does great off road and on.

Just check the classifieds and eBay if you want chrome stockers or buy aftermarket.
