depends on the look you want, the ride you are after and the size of tire and wheel you plan on rolling down the road. I would say a 205/40/17 would be the smallest but a 215 45 17 would give you a much better ride.

Yup, either the 215/45/17 like everyone said or a 215/40/17 if you want to make it a little easier to lay out when you bag it. I've got the 215/45/17's on my Denalis if you want to see what they look like, height-wise, for reference.

i never really liked the denali rims until i seen them actually on a truck. they look like shit without tires and everything on them but once you get them with tires and on a truck they look pretty damn good, better than the escalades i think. What all do you have to do to get these on and do they tuck no problem. are yours 16's or 17's

That style Denali rim only comes in 17's. To get them to fit you either have to bore out the hub centers on the wheel, or grind off the hubcentric tabs off the hubs front/back on the truck. They tuck fine in the front, but in the back the tire starts to rub the bedside when layed out.
