    33" tire width on stock suburban 18" wheels?

    275/70/18 are 33.2". Lots of options in that size...

    Ditched the 22 Snowflakes for 18" AT4 Wheels

    Snowflakes were a 3k option in 2018. Mine were in good shape with good tread. Wheels alone are 1k all day unless really beat up...

    Ditched the 22 Snowflakes for 18" AT4 Wheels

    So I put them on craiglist for very little interest, then did facebook marketplace and sold them in a few days for $1600 (lots of lowballs - just ignore them). I am in DFW. I sold the take off wranglers for $250 there as well which was a very nice bonus. FBM is the place now, see what others are...

    Yukon water torture

    Dont buy anything after the pandy. Nothing lasts anymore. You want reliable, you better keep your older stuff running...

    Did any LTZ Avalanches come with the G80?

    Pretty sure all LT and higher had them - I know my 13 4wd LTZ did as part of standard features...

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Yes - you do several full throttle 0-60 (+) runs to get the engine heated up and knock loose all the crap. It can be bad if you have a weak link somewhere, but every time I have done it the engine runs a lot smoother...

    Buyers Remorse?

    Do yourself a favor and ditch the 22s. They dont balance well, and tire choices are crap plus expensive as hell. A big trend I noticed on you tube (which I followed) is switching to AT4 18" wheels. Plenty of tire choices, and you can save 15lb+ of unsprung weight per wheel. I actually came out...

    Buyers Remorse?

    Yeah you really need to get rid of it. God only knows what kind of hissy fit you will throw when you need a real repair (possibly due to you refusing to use the recommended fuel). You could pick up a new GX/LX/Sequoia with that "reliable" boosted 6 they all have now...

    Wiring for added interior accessories

    Last 2 generations had a plastic cap in front of the passenger seat under the carpet about were your right foot would sit. It was a great pass through for an amplifier power wire to the back. I drilled through it and added a rubber grommet...

    Battery Replacement a Professional Job?!

    Its a pita on these rigs - much easier on the gmt900s. After removing the braces, I had to flip it sideways to get it out, and oem doesnt have a handle to get a good grip. Its awkward and heavy - make sure you have a stepladder, a strap, and a fender cover. It also helps to not have anything...

    Strutmasters Magneride

    I just put a set of FCS on son's 3 series, and they greatly improved the ride as his were totally blown - cheap too from Rock Auto. His car rides better than mine now. How are the FCS holding up on the Yukon? You get any codes on the dash? I would pay for OEM, but I really don't want to...

    Why the switch to big rims?

    Try new sway bars - they will make a difference. Put them all the way forward on the back too - I had my hotchkis on back hole at first then went forward - much more snap in rear. Did the same on my burb from mid to front on hellwigs - noticable improvement...

    What did you do to your 2015-2020 K2XX Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Just to follow up, I put in some D3S LEDs and they are slightly better. These projectors are just trash. The LEDs will instantly turn to full brightness giving them an edge over the stock HIDs, however I am still wanting more. I reassert that the fog LEDs are the saviors on the 18 Denali...

    2023 22's onto my 2013

    Nope, gotta get 315mhz. I believe it was 2019 when they went to 433mhz...

    Why the switch to big rims?

    The only issue with the "performance" argument is that the inch in side wall reduction - while significant in a sports car - doesn't mean squat with a 3 ton body-on-frame SUV pushing down heavy on any tire. I feel a slight difference with the 18s in quick turns, but I can still go through them...
