Ok so I have decided I want to buy rims, and assume I will need new tires to go with them...currently I have the 17" chrome from the luxury package in the 05.
Chrome rims are a must (like the look). I live in Buffalo, NY so all terrain (like the stock tires), are a BIG plus since the snow is harsh here in the winter...
I'm looking for 22" or 24". I'm pretty ignorant on rims and all though, I've been checking eBay and I think I really like these 24" ones...
It says they are 24x10, bolt pattern 8x165, with 10 offset. They are $1,785. I know the 24 means 24"...what's the rest mean? Also which tires would be good with these and what would the typical cost of a set of 4 tires cost me?
Oh also...what's the typical cost to have them installed?
I have an 05 White H2...so I think these would look really good on mine. |

I like the Kaotic NT-1. This is a pic off the other thread. I'm not sure what size they're showing.
I saw these in 40" tire, with 20" rim. SWEET!

I have 20" wheels with 37" tires and the braking is not a problem. I pulled my boat the other day with the surge brakes not working and the truck stopped itself and the boat just fine.

IMO, You may have been happier with an Escalade. They adapt themselves more easily to the Poser theme 24" wheels tend to emulate on an SUV. While you can put 24" wheels on an H2, forget about utility & good performance in snowy conditions. 18's or 20's look good on an H2 & still maintain enough tire sidewall to allow the H2 to perform admirably as the penultimate SUV. IMO, the H2 pictured in the add in your post looks absolutely ridiculous. However if that's what you're going for, good luck.

Get off the Bling thread! You don't even own those tires anymore.  And don't you know that Super Swampers would look like crap on 24" rims? Sheesh.

I think Office Depot may be your best bet for tires. They carry many sizes of rubberbands.

You will get more brake fade. This has been discussed several times.

Hey Mordak, resize that picture, it will easier to evaluate if it fits the screen.
Thanks!

With 18" Kaotics. It's a bad pic though.

So I'm leaning towards buying the DUB Condo 22" wheels.
I was told to NOT screw up my speedometer/odometer etc. I need 325/50/22 tires? Something about keeping the factory diameter.
Anyone know the truth to this?
Thanks for any help!

I took a look at those but didn't like the huge hub that sticks out. On an 8 lug, you can't get the flush hub.

Trust him. And when you need a stereo that ROCKS and a Play Station concealed somewhere, be sure and let him know about that as well!

Post pics, I'd love to see them!

Check out http://www.wheelpros.com/newstyles/. Models 950 and 951 are especially cool. And come in 22" size as well.
