#29 of 37 Tahoe 2005-DIC "service tire monitor"

The message "service tire monitor" is always on and so is the battery light. I have had this checked and they say all is fine and they don't know why it is always on. Has anyone else had this problem? Thank you.

Hopefully this is still under warranty.......if so, insist on the dealership fixing this, as it will be hard to ever sell without.
You either have two problems as the lights are telling you, or you potentially have a bad instrument panel cluster.

Well thank you. It's back at the dealership right now but it is not still under warranty. My bad luck I guess. I'll ask them about the "bad instrument panel cluster". Thanks so much.

I've looked for an appropriate discussion but found none so....
50K on the BS Duelers that came with my 05 Tahoe.
Happy with wear and traction but thought I'd check with others in a forum to see if there is any kind of consensus.
I occasionally do minor off-roading, no beach activities. Sometimes need to handle heavy snow conditions.
Any input will be appreciated.
#35 of 37 Ready to add new tires and wheels to tahoe z-71 4x4

hello!
I have a 2007 tahoe z-71 4x4. I currently have the stock 20" rim and tires (p265/65 r18) that it came with.
I'm looking to upgrade and want to give it a more aggressive look. I'm not looking to raise or lower it, just keep the z-71 suspension.
the two wheels that I'm looking at are:
liquid metal rhino / 20 x 9
mb wheels v-drive / 20 x 9
the two tires I'm looking at are:
road hugger xrt / 275 / 55r-20
cooper zeon ltz / 275 / 55r-20
my question is are these wheels and tires going to fit and look good on my tahoe? I want more of an all terrain look of the tires... not a "street" look
if these aren't the tires... what tires would you recommend? thanks!
#37 of 37 Tires for Z71 4x4 Tahoe

My Z71 4x4 Tahoe has the stock 265 65 18 Bridgestone Dueler A/T tires
I got a GIANT nail in one today - Discount tire was able to patch it - tires only have 13,500 miles on them.
While I was at the tire store I priced out a a set of Michelin LTX M&S2 tires - had these on my last Tahoe - they were very good.
Drive out price (they are allowing a trade in credit on my Bridgestone tires) is $800.
Anyone replaced their Bridgestone A/T tires with Michelin (or anything else) ?
Did you notice any improvement in the ride / handling?
I have always thought these Brigestone A/T tires were crap - this looks like a chance to get a new set of tires for a decent price.
But if I will not see much improvement then it would be a dumb waste of money.
