New Tires/lift Report


Recommended Posts

Posted

So far this lift has gone great. Alignment was right on. There is no vibration what so ever at any speed. The new tires threw off the speedo, then I modified the tire size with a Predator performance modified tune install. Now again all is well. Around town is 15.0 MPG. It cruises up hill at 50MPH in sixth gear at 1250RPM!!!!!!! Love that 6.2 mill!

Here's the new tires. 305/65R-18

BFG All Terrain Radials ($305 ea)

Pure sex. There's something that feels wrong about a lifted Denali, but it looks so damn good! :thumbs: That Tundra is freaking awesome, too.

 

You want a fancy shmancy sig pic? :drool:

Looks great!!! Now de-badge that tailgate!!! :thumbs:

 

 

No dibadgee mosieure'

But, see that shiny lower grill??? It's getting black. Then depending on how it looks, I'm thinking of painting the grill insert black, but leaving the surround and the "GMC" letters shiney!!!!!

What cha' got in mind?

 

 

Not sure yet, but I'll mess with some of the pictures in PS and post it up. :thumbs:

 

EDIT: And if you're not going to de-badge everything, can you please just take off the little GM chicklets? Just for me? :drool:

Well, something needs to be done with that lower grill. It looks like the cheshire cat smiling back at you! :drool:

Yep, I agree, and the cheese grater needs to go too.

 

But most importantly, that tailgate is screaming "shave me!!!!" :D

Here's the sig. I kinda went overboard with this one, if you want something simpler/less busy let me know, I was just experimenting a little. :thumbs:

Man,

 

That's flippin great, I love it!

 

BUT

 

In a couple days the lower grill is going to go the way of the black parts, probably so is the cheese grater grill thing! Might need a slight redo after the cosmetic surgery!

But,

Thanks for a great job!

Now,

How do I post that in my sig???

You're spot on, couldn't agree more. Just goes to show you how much ugly chrome I was willing to put up with to get that 6.2 and 6-speed!
