With 17's and a leveling kit you could go with a 285/70-17 for a great fit with a leveling kit that will give you a good tough look, etc. As for the pics, sorry, I don't have any to post for ya...

Do it! I'm so glad I did. I got the level kit and 1.5" spacers, and my tires are 285/75r16s (A hair under 33") I hope this helps! Here's some before/after shots. And also, there's ZERO rubbing, and it rides amazingly.

You can even fit 285/70/17s with stock wheels if you crank the torsion bars.

So you are running stock Tahoe 16s on it now? The Z71 wheels are 17s. But you should have no problem of you turn the torsion bars. You may have to trim a little bit of the plastic off the lower valence at most.
