    get 15's. They're cheaper, their tires are cheaper, and it lets you have more rubber between the wheel and ground. That makes your tires look bigger.

    I've heard they won't clear the calipers... 15"ers that is.

    I don't think that's true. I had a friend with 15x10 589's on his z71. As far as I know the brakes are the same. It never could hurt to do a little more inquiry at a tire place or something.

    15" won't clear the newer body style rear calipers. I do think they clear the older style drums though

    15s will not clear the calipers on the new 99+ Silverado/Sierras. Minimum 16" rim.

    But he has a 97, so none of that applies.

    that's alright... I like 16" better. Plus they're being delivered tomorrow so I can't change my mind now :)
