My correct setup

7 rcx lift

22x12 American force wheels

 

Only rezone I wanted to go down on lift and wheels is that rocks are chipping all my paint below the doors and I don't want to add fender flares

Nice pic Zjosh. Unfortunate about the rock chips but those wheels are super aggressive. Another option to consider is to white vinyl wrap the lower portion of your truck.

Yea I know I've been told to add clear wrap but the downside of it might turn yellow over time that's what I been told

Clear vinyl will eventually yellow. Use the white vinyl wrap instead.

truck looks fantastic, I'd leave it. I don't know why you're chipping, I'm almost as wide and I don't have any chips

I have no idea I've read everywhere that our newer trucks have very thin paint and it's easy to get chipped rocks are even chipping the heavy clear coat under the doors I think the rocks get stuck on the tires and just fly off at a high rated speed I like my truck just wanted to go down but I'm stuck like that now lol

ive had 4 lifted trucks without flares and 0 or negative offsets and only 1 had noticeable minor chipping

Not sure if this will count for a suspension lift but after lots of researching, everyone telling me there isn't an option for what I wanted I decided to improvise.

 

I have a 2017 Denali 1500, I wanted it to sit just a couple inches higher but I still wanted a little bit of rake.

 

Companies offered me 4"+ that were compatible with my GM magneride or 2" levelling kits.

 

One company suspension maxx has an option but shipping made it quite expensive to Canada.

 

I ended up ordering a 2" levelling kit from rough country & designed my own 3" lift blocks for the back to replace the 1.25" stock blocks (resulting in a 1.75" lift in the back).

 

 

 

Fabbed up some new brackets for the magneride sensors & shes looking just like I wanted.

 

I don't want the "off road / lifted" look I just want its stance to be a little closer to my 16 Chevy 3500 which it is now.

 

Anyone know the widest tire that I can put on the stock 22" rims ? 285/45/22 are stock size.

 

 

My custom block

Ok guys I have been doing some research on CST 4.5" lift kit vs BDS 4" lift kit. I already purchased fox 2.5 factory series coilovers, fox 2.0 rear shocks, and cognito upper control arms. I am hoping one of you guys can tell me what your opinion was on one of these kits. (also hopefully you have this specific kit on your truck and let me know exactly how everything is)
