2TE — Front tires: 8.75X16.5D Tbls Highway B/W (Harmonic Marked). This code identifies the factory tire specification, application, or spare-wheel equipment. Browse RPO codes →

The equipment report for my 2026 Chevrolet Suburban lists 2TE: “Front tires: 8.75X16.5D Tbls Highway B/W (Harmonic Marked). This code identifies the factory tire specification, application, or spare-wheel equipment” I cannot find or activate the feature. Could this be a production deletion, a market-specific code, or a component that has been replaced?

This sounds more like a documentation mismatch than a decoder error. Different databases often shorten the same factory description in different ways.

The wording may be abbreviated because these were originally production codes rather than consumer descriptions. “Front tires: 8.75X16.5D Tbls Highway B/W (Harmonic Marked). This code identifies the factory tire specification, application, or spare-wheel equipment” is a reasonable plain-English reading, but the exact implementation should be verified for the 2026 model.

I would avoid buying retrofit parts until the connectors and module support are confirmed. Returning electronic or VIN-programmed components can be difficult.

I would start by checking the original build sheet and then compare the physical equipment on the vehicle. A sales or option code confirms the factory record, but it does not prove that every original component is still installed.

Before buying, I would inspect the relevant component and take a photo of its label or part number. That often resolves whether the vehicle still has the factory configuration associated with 2TE.
