Just got the 3/1.5 leveling put on last week. And put the 17x9 -12 fuel hostages on the same day. With streeties 265/70-17. Need to put some 33s on and tint. Kinda debating on a 2" BL or a 3" spindle. Not sure yet

You can do both!! I have, a 3 inch body lift, 3 inch spindles, 4 inch suspension lift kit and 5100 struts. Ground to fender height is 46" front and rear.

Nice OBS wrong thread but much love for 2drs!

Those duratracs are awesome and look great! Good work

Thank you! I got an amazing deal on the set i couldn't pass up.
I really need to get the rear 1" on. It rubs pretty bad on the rear liners in and out of driveways. The fronts don't rub the liners at all but I was really surprised to get some sway bar rub at full lock. I don't know why that's happening with 275's.

It's the big sidewall lugs which make the tire wider even though the tread width is 275. Should be easy to drop in a 1" spacer to level and help clear the rear liner.

That makes sense. Hopefully it will clear up with the rear spacer. Is there no fix for rubbing the swaybar?

You could probably get a front and rear 3/16" wheel spacer and that would help clear the sway bar and rear liner. They will fit in between wheel and brake rotor sliding on the studs. You have enough stud threads to run these spacers.

Any photos of the rear? And have you hauled with it? I'm nervous because we have used our tahoe to haul flatbeds from time to time and the hitch relocation makes me a little nervous for a BL

I ran 1/4 spacers just fine. Plenty of lug. Wasn't quite enough to clear the 305s from the sway bar though, I would suggest hubcentric spacers though for safety.

Might be a strange pic request, but does anyone have any pics of leveled Tahoes on LTZ 22" rims with a/t or m/t tires? I think Nitto is the only one who makes a/ts or m/ts for rims that large, but I could be wrong.

I'm interested in the 1/4 inch spacers. Where can I find some that are hub centric? I've been looking online and no luck.

I need a spacer for the rear for the same rubbing issue. What does the center diameter of the hub centric spacer need to be?

Very Nice. How do you like your Powerstop rotors? I'm thinking about them myself.

I like them so far, I don't really put too much mileage on though. It seem to be pulling hard sometimes on hard stops. Not sure if its a result of the wider tires or some brake bleeding needs to be done.

I've got Powerstop ceramic pads and they made a big difference before the 305s. I just want some more help getting the bigger/heavier tire stopped. Thanks.

I had them on my Silverado, Tahoe, and my Suburban with no issues. The Powerstop pads really make a difference stopping.

This is what im trying to figure out! By the way, with your LED switchbacks, what wire did you put the resistor on to stop hyperflash? Is there a tutorial? I've had a set sitting in my garage for a while and my DRL just went out so it's time to rip the front end apart.
