#18 of 37 Re: Tire Pressure Sensors [5571madrid] by djantho Oct 20, 2007 (7:27 pm)
Replying to: 5571madrid (Jan 07, 2007 6:38 am) you need a OTC pressure monitor reset tool to have the light turned off. with the tool first the vehicle need to have all tires set to 35psi. Then with the OTC tool you need to put the vehicle in learn mode. All GMC and Chevy trucks are the same first turn the key to on but donot start the vehicle next depress the e-break and turn the headlights on and off 4 times ending with the headlights on if this is done correctly the vehilce will honk. at this point you need the OTC tool to retrain each sensor o there new locations on the vehicle.

I have a 95 Tahoe 1500 4 door 4wd that I just picked up. It needs tires badly and has several types on it now... I need to know what the info for the tires is on the placard in the drivers door, mine is missing. If someone could post or send me that info that would be awesome, I wanna get tires asap, but want to make sure I don't get too small a load rating, the tire places around here are just guessing...

Replying to: crazycd1 (Nov 20, 2007 5:08 pm) I don't have a 95 Tahoe, but you can go to www.tirerack.com and look up your vehicle. It will tell you the original shipped size......as well as give you options. If you want, you can ship them to your or a local shop (select one of their local installers in your area).
#23 of 37 wobly on ice. by cjonas Jan 01, 2008 (3:20 pm)
My 99' Tahoe w/ an 8" lift and 35" Mickey Thompson baja claws is incredibly wigley on icy roads. Is it just the baja claws being 13.5 inches wide, or something elese? Also my rear end housing has a couple of cracks on the drive side, However it seems to be fine on everything, but the ice. Replies to this message: rockman59 (Jan 01, 2008 7:44 pm)

Replying to: jeffnc (May 06, 2007 6:50 am) i believe 17" was option w/bridgestone tires/ firestone was standerd w/ 16".my 03 burb had bw a/s firestones when new.you should try to match your tires on 4wd moreso than 2wd. tires have to roll w/ same circumferance for transfer case to not have a shudder in 4wd hi range- part time .part time is locked ft to rear.(HD) if you will AUTO 4WD-full time is rear wheel drive w/power sent to ft, if rear wheels change speeds from ft (slipping,loss of traction.)not a solid connection,there is some shifting in transfercase for this. part time is locked no forgiveness! ONLY USE 4HI IF EXTREMELY SLIPPERY,mud,snow,ice - not rain / tahoe is short burb,nothing else. you should buy matched a/s tires.keep tires 3-5 psi above door jamb press.rotate them 2x year-every other lof.ask for proof before alignment.you want oem specs,your cars measurements before and after! a lot of shananigins/vodoo about "alignments " these vehicles have no problems w/ ft end parts or align issues.all problems i see are induced by wrong tires,low press.curb hits,poor alignments,lack of rotates.i am a chevy dealer tech/ " tire guru ' - tom m - email if any more help needed.
#27 of 37 1990 Suburban Tire Size by suburban4 Jan 13, 2008 (9:38 pm)
My stock 4x4 Suburban has 235/75/R15 tire size and I I don't want to lift the truck up at all. What is the largest tire size I can use without rubbing whenever I hit a bump?
