I wonder if 30 X 9.5's will fit? I currently have 235/75R15 which is about 28.8inch so I bet 30's would fit. The ZR2 have 31 I think, on same size rim.

i had the exact same size tire (235/75/15) and switched to 30x9.5x15 and they fit perfectly with no rubbing what so ever

Did you guys get the speedo recalibrated when you stepped up to the 235/75R15's or 30 x 9.5's? If so was it something that the dealership could do to my 2k Bravada?

It's like .8 of an hour labor rate at the dealer to recalibrate.
Your speedo will be off 3mph @60mph. When you think your going 60, actually your going roughly 63. The biggest difference will be in distance, your odometer will be off as well. So if the directions say to go 1.7 miles and turn. You will have no idea when you get to 1.7 miles.
