I picked up this set of wheels and tires for an obscenely low price. Take offs from a Nissan Titan....only have about 10K miles on them. Wheels are almost perfect minus what looks like an impact gun oops on a lug hole. Crazy thing is the guy was super nice. I had recently got the Supreme Suspensions 3" level/lift. Broke it out of the box and discovered it didn't come with the torsion bar key tool...so I haven't put it on yet. Talking with the guy, he started asking me about lifts and stuff, and in the end, he says he has a set of HD Bilsteins as well. I didn't have the extra cash with me, and he says..no, they are sitting here collecting dust, if you can use them, they are yours.
So I don't know yet if the shocks will work on the Hoe, coming from a Titan. But I'm damn sure gonna try!

But The tires just about look brand new, 275/70/18s vs 17's. Love the way they look too.

Got my headlights installed (just OEM style, but black backs, not smoked) and all new lights installed.
Got my dash repaired and repainted.
Also got a kenwood double din installed, but forgot to take pics.

I also painted the grill black to match the emblem (not pictured). I absolutely hate rattle can. I did it that way, because I will be replacing the whole grill soon....so I don't care about longevity.

I'm bad about before / after pics. The PO did a horrible job trying to repair the dash. You can see how they sprayed it in place, I now need to get a can of the lighter color and repair the lower dash...that spray looks horrible there.

I like both. but I really like how much/little the wheels have bling. Subtle... That's why I'm leaning to the all black. I don't know. I will give it a little bit of time to burn in and digest it before I buy.

Ok maybe I'm crazy... I thought I'd seen and read about an upgrade for 01 NBS Hoes with the ROUND brake booster to a square hydroboost from Cadillacs? I'm not certain what donors, but can someone point me to a write-up on how to do this mod?

ivin74, they aren't my taste, it was honestly meant as a joke...I didn't note the link. Sorry.
I just went to amazon and did a search for "Tahoe center caps".

Edit... Forgot that amazon saves your browsing history...here ya go.

Lol was a good joke. I don’t mind the design, not my taste, but I don’t like how no matter which way you look at it the flag is either upside down or backwards :think:. Unless the image is reversed
