i have a set of Diamo DI 17 karat..not sure on backspacing on the wheel or offset but they are flush with the outside of the truck..(they dont stick out past the wheel well)..to be honest they came on the truck when i bought it..they were brand new so i kept them..and i like them..but i really want some 20x10 black Rockstars

edit- after checking out the 4wheelparts website..my wheels are more than likely the 17x10..with a 5.03in backspace and a -12mm offset..

Well IDK what kind of noise level you're looking for. But I had Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radials on my old tahoe when I had my accident. I think they were just put on before I bought it 2 months before my accident. But I drove that thing A LOT & towed boats with it at least every other week if not more. As well as pulling a trailer full of quads from Holiday to Croom about every weekend if not one of my other local trails I had found. And my mom drove it back and forth from Palm Harbor to Bayfront in St Pete every day for 7 months & they still had about the thickness of a credit card before they were going to hit the wear marks between the treads when I sold it about 6 months after I came home.

Their a bit noisy but are good for putting passengers to sleep with the hum. lol And they handled great on the road & are great in the rain due to their tread design. They also do pretty good in the mud & sand as you can see below, they went off road on a somewhat regular basis rather it be pulling a trailer of quads through trails or just going out playing like below. Their a bit more expensive that some of the others.. but well worth the money in my opinion.:

yeah, I am trying to go with more black, and replace the polished stuff as much as possible.
The nerf bars and grille are next.
