I got a sweet deal on some 30" rims and tires for my Tahoe. The rims diameter are 36.5 inches around. I been getting alot of feedback on what to do. Most say a 6" suspension lift in combo with a 3" body lift. Others say the body lift isn't needed. If anybody has info or alternatives on this subject I would appreciate it.

No offense, but I wouldn't put 30" wheels on my car if somebody gave them to me. Have you ridden in or driven a vehicle with that size wheels on it? You may think it looks cool, but they ride & handle like crap.

Whats the outside diameter of you stock rims?  I would have to say if you're going to be putting rims like this on your ride it's pretty lame to lift it.  Unless you want a donk.
