2009 Z71 Tahoe W/ 6" Lift + Bmf Novakanes

[SEEL]

I'm new to this site and wanted to post pictures of my 'Hoe and hopefully help anyone that is interested in doing this with theirs. I learned quite a bit during the whole process and would be happy to give any advice needed. I'm always lurking around on other posts trying to learn as much as I can so I know how it can be sometimes. There aren't many lifted 'Hoes out there so information is scarce. All the major stats are in my signature. Hope to see you guys around.

Damn looks reallllyy good... also looks like novakanes are the new rockstars to me... We got 3 white trucks with 20" novokanes on em now just on this site, two popped up in the last week or so.

 

I have the KMC rockstars right now and nowadays its every 4th lifted truck you see has em. It wasnt like that 2.5 years ago where i live but its even caught up to me. Its what happens when your wheels look awesome.

Thanks everyone!

 

I'm not against anyone joining the bandwagon for Novakanes but I think the price alone will keep people from buying them like they did the rockstars. At 500 a wheel they are kind of pricey. I've also heard they are sold out all the time. I guess BMF doesn't produce at the same rate. I was in contact with BMF over their Tahoe grilles recently and they said they are slowing production of everything until after the new year. I have no idea why. Economy maybe.

That is bad ass! We have no done up Tahoe's in my area. I knew a guy that put the LS7 in his '07 but he got it repo'd. Real dumb sh*t. The thing was sick though.

They can be found for $1500 for the 20's thats what i seen them for when i was contemplating a set of BMFs. thats only a few hundred more than the rockstars used to be when i got them years ago.

 

Like i said i already seen 3 guys with white trucks and novakanes on here.. Its probably just a coincidence but i duno. People who are willing to drop 4-5K on a lift and wheels for a 35-50K truck they just bought arent gonna be deterred by and extra $500 bucks. But atleast the extra price will keep them off the older trucks.

I love your 'hoe.

[KMGZ400]

ok enough with the "Hoe" jokes.

[lbkthree]

Hey, do you have wheel spacers in the rear?

[DwelveAT]

Very nice ride you have there. I have always been fond of Tahoe/Avalanche Z71 packages.

im not worried about the novakanes turning into a fad as much as the rockstars. when i was shopping for wheels and tires i was finding rockstars mounted/balanced with nice tires for $1500. i actually like the rockstars so it was difficult for me to pass up some of those quotes....

 

i do think its funny that there are 3 white trucks now with the novakanes on this forum, but thats definitely not the norm. they're few and far between on other forums.... and for people who arent quite as enthusiastic as us "forum users" and are just shopping local stores for a set of wheels, they're even less likely to drop the money for a set of BMFs whereas the KMC wheels are flying off the shelves (for good reason... they're nice wheels for a good price).

 

not to mention the SOTAs are gaining popularity too which'll make the Novakanes even less common.

 

with all that said.... who cares? id rather run a wheel that i like, even if they're very common as opposed to a wheel that i dont like just because no one has them.

 

ive said it before and ill say it again... i LOVE that hoe!

Beautiful Tahoe.

[lsuguy]

OMG that thing is sexy. I love the Tahoes. And this is just a sexy setup.

How do you like the Z120BT? I almost bought that instead of doing my lift and wheels and tires but figured I'd drop money on something people could see first and get the screen later. Almost every day I think about buying one but not sure if it'll be worth it yet. Would love to see some pics of it if you have some.\

 

 

Again sick sick ride. Except that texas shit
