Just put a set of Black Rhino 18x8.5 Stadium (0 Offset) wheels on Falken Wildpeak A/T3W tires (275/70R18). Stock Z71 suspension no leveling kit, no trimming. I have the SLIGHTEST rub when fully cranked right in reverse going down a steep driveway onto level ground only at the front right...
stumped as well....NEVER seen that one. Definitely not a fab fours or any of the other big brands. It's that foot step that I've never seen on an after market, mass for sale rear bumper. I'll keep looking.
IMHO don't bother with LED bulbs...yeah they're "brighter", when you're looking directly at them but don't work worth a sh*t when you need light thrown at the rear of your vehicle. I've tried over 10 different LED bulbs and always take them out and return them, you think I would have learned...
Zed, they are NOT softer, actually noticeably stiffer and thicker. I loved them and still love them.....on smooth roads. Ripping down a gravel road, you'll get that shake, newly paved road.....BUTTER...
After countless hours, days and even months on forums after my air ride went out I went with the Bilstein 5100's. I have a bit of a frankentstein setup in regards to how I did it though. I left all of the stock (airride) springs and hardware and just today replaced my rear coils with z71's...
I'm not sold on that solution yet. I've measured Lt's, LS's and LTZ's across 2007-2011 and my front and rear are still higher. My strut assemblies are put together correctly. I have come across a person who kept the autoride springs and hardware and just inserted the 5100's like I did. I'm...
AutumnWind. I'll check that later tonight. But yesterday I did measure a stock ltz front strut length from bottom bolts to bottom of lower spring seat and my setup on mine is almost 3/4" longer than the stock autoride setups of 07-14 tahoes.
The only reason for all of this non-sense is...
What is the difference in spring rates from a standard Tahoe vs an Autoride Tahoe.
2007-2014 LT or LS models
vs....
2007-2014 LTZ Autoride suspension
Spring heights, compression rate, size any different?
Thanks Autumn Wind. I had to see that on a nissan titan forum just now as well. I just called bilstein back and they "guarantee" the lowest setting is a 0" addition on the 5100's. Garbage...thanks though!
I can not for the LIFE OF ME find out the difference in spring rates from a standard Tahoe vs an Autoride Tahoe. I'm thinking I bite the bullet and first try just different coil springs.

Heyyoooo,
Can't tell you guys enough how much I've lurked on this site for answers to my builds. I'm new here (I feel like everyone says that) as if my post count doesn't tell you that. Anyways...I have a little bit of a problem with the shocks I installed on my 07 LTZ Tahoe.
