NICE! That means my favorite tire will bolt right on with ZERO issues. Toyo Open Country A/T. GREAT TIRES!

this happens a lot. I have a set of Toyo M/T 33 x 12.5 x 22 that are pinned and studded. I have a 2022 yukon at4 about to arrive and I am still not sure if they will fit. Those tires fit on an 18 sierra 1/2 ton with a level, but I am not sure it's safe to assume these will fit on a "factory level" on a Yukon. Has anyone been successful here? I am not interested in trimming or anything but they do fit perfect on the truck. My hope is to buy a set of 22" wheels that will fit as they are not offered by GM on Yukon at4. I ordered the basic 20s that have no upcharge knowing I would be doing something else...
So far, I have been unlucky finding an answer locally at various shops.
 

I didn't have to cut much off the body to fit my 24x14's. Most people played it safe with 9's, 10's, and even 12's, but I didn't want to be like everyone else. Plus, these 4Play wheels only came in a 14" width in a 24. What I did was taper off the rear fender well about 1.75 inches, and 1.5 inches in the front. I did have to carve out a lot of the plastic behind the bumper, but not so much where it would lose its structural integrity. I did make the mistake of having my felt fender liners cut up while doing the body chopping instead of removing them, but I've since bought OEM replacements and I'm waiting to have them installed.

In all, I'm happy with the wheels and the results I wanted. They are menacing and intimidating to people next to me in traffic, and I do get a lot of looks and thumbs up, but overall I'm happy with the results. You don't find a lot of lifted 2021/2022 Yukon/Tahoes out there with an aggressive wheel setup, so I think that's what makes mine stand out. I do occasionally get dirty looks from off-road purests with massive tires and little rims, but I don't plan on doing any hardcore off-roading, so I don't pay them any mind.
 

Hope this helps, but I tried to fit the tire/wheel set up on my Sierra AT4X last weekend on my wife’s 2021 Yukon AT4. 285/60r20 Nitto RG (33.7x11.5)

They were not even close to fitting and rubbed at even 1/2 turn, so no way a 285/65 is gonna fit on a stock suspension. Keep in mind the 20x9 wheels here are a +1 offset, so a factory wheel will help being a more positive offset. Here are some pics which look bad ass, but not functional at all to actually drive.

Thanks and good luck with the upgrades!

I bought a Yukon AT4 last year for my wife. She really liked the Denali wheels, so I replaced the stock 20 inch AT4 wheels with 22 inch Denali wheels on 33x12.50 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. They obviously aren’t as tall as the 285/65R20s, but they are wider—which is often the bigger problem—and we haven’t had any issues…other than the two goobers in the back window.

Old Guard, that looks great!
thinking about some larger tires for my Wife’s Yukon AT4. No rubbing issues at all? Happy with ride quality? Thanks in advance
 

It does ride a little rougher, but not bad at all. It has the adjustable air suspension, which probably helps a lot. And, no: there have not been any rubbing issues. I took it to South Texas in some rough back country—rocks, ruts, etc.—and zero rubbing, zero problems.
 

Thanks, great feedback!
def ready to upgrade her ride from factory look/stance. Thanks again
Got my wife some new kicks for her Yukon AT4
Went with Fuel Sledge 20x9 +1 offset
Nitto Recon Grapplers 285/55r20 (32.4”x11.7”)

def like the new look and stance with a little wider tire than stock and more offset wheel. Tiny, tiny rub at full lock on inclined driveway. Little trimming and should be all good. A +10 to +20 offset wheel would have fixed also, but prefer this look. Thanks and wanted to post if anyone considering swapping out stock set up
