Smile hello

My name is Wendy. I have a 2006 H3. I've had it for 2 1/2 years and love it. I'm looking to get some wheels and tires for it and I wanted some input on what size should I get. I don't want a low profile tire because they won't last very long.

welcome to the forums.....
if you go off-road, then i would stick with smaller wheels/rims. if you stick to the road and like the big flashy kind, then youll probably get larger wheels. as far as tires, you shouldnt go larger than a 35" tall tire without a lift kit of some kind. rubbing will occur if you dont. your mpgs will suffer too - the larger the tire. most members on here that have the larger tires have the 315's which are approx. 35" tires. they are a more beefy tire and it pushes the proportion of truck to tire in my opinion. i always thought the 305's without a lift look the best. keep us posted!

Welcome to the forum Wendy, as Kaua mentioned above. It really depends on your tastes... What are you hopin that the tires will do for you? What is your primary use of the H3? Daily driver? Or weekend toy? How many miles you put on a year? Highway versus city? All important factors...

I drive my Hummer about everyday. I don't do any off road and I don't plan to. I don't want something too big that it will require a lift nor do I want it so big that it will alter the speed-odometer.
