Hey Guys (and Gals),

Just traded my '04 Trailblazer for an '07 3LT Tahoe in Silverbirch Metallic. I haven't even taken delivery of it yet (hopefully in the next couple of days), but I know that it is getting different wheels and tires before it even hits my driveway.

The dealer just put brand new 17" rubber on the thing, but I have to at least go to stock 20's. I've been kicking around the idea of putting the factory 22" Escalade wheels on it, but haven't found anyone with pics of this set up. I checked the Photo Gallery on this site, but had no luck. Does anyone have pics of this set up they would be willing to share? Thanks in advance.

Welcome, look for the "what it looks like now and soon to be" thread by julio and he has a Photoshop of Esky wheels on a Tahoe on that thread.

Thanks for the response. I pm'd him to see if he made the swap yet, hopefully to get some real pics! Thanks again for the help, but anyone else who may have this set up is welcome to post pics. I doubt I am the first to ask this question.

well guys, it's a moot point....I found some 22" Escalade's on ebay for $1800 bucks! the lowest I've seen them is for $2499 and up, so I think I got a pretty good deal, also considering fact. 20's are going for $1400.

I'll answer my own question once they arrive, and I'll be sure to post some pics in case anyone else wants to do the same. Thanks for the help.

^^^What are you gonna do about the Cadillac logo on the center caps? I just think it's gonna look a bit odd on a Chevy...:ack:

Welcome to the forum! I am eager to see the pics when you get the new wheels installed!

I know you can get blank center caps for those wheels. I know someone on here has done it but i dont remember who it is.

Yeah, if you go on Ebay, you can find "No Logo" centers for these wheels. I picked up a set right after I purchased the wheels. I wish someone would make them with a bowtie logo, but I haven't had any luck finding such a thing.

I was trying to think if there would be any kind of raised vinyl material that could be colored in silver or "chrome" that a bowtie could be made from and stuck on the centers. I've seen these in red at Autozone, although it has been a few years since, and they were about 2.5" wide, which would be just about perfect. If anyone has any thoughts on this, please feel free to share.
