    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    That’s possible although I’ve personally never had that issue on any of my last four Tahoes that were “spat less”. I’ve noticed all trim levels of the Tahoe, Yukon and Escalade are now coming through with them, with the exception of the Z71 and AT4. I may have to go with the Z71 to get the look...

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    You make a fair point but just to keep the conversation going: that’s like saying just because you spend the majority of your time living inside your house when at home it doesn’t matter if something ridiculous looking is hanging off it on the outside.

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Totally agree. My only question is the configuration of them. Someone earlier stated they cut them off. If you have to cut them you won’t be putting them back on.

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Hey Ryan, my 24 RST is supposed to arrive at my dealership next week. My observation has been all the trims are coming through with spats with the exception of the Z71. What’s your opinion, can you live with them?

    2024 Tahoe Build Journey

    Hi Cedric! Sounds like a story I’m familiar with. I was able to order a 2024 RST on 29 September after 3 months waiting for the allocation. No money down. Long story short, the build date was pushed back three times and is currently slated for assembly the first week in January. The order was...

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Yes, totally makes sense, I appreciate you and everyone else taking the time to explain and educate me with this. If my new one comes through with them they won’t be there long. Thanks guys!

    Wasn’t my intent to do anything that violated this forum’s protocol or offend anyone. My apologies if I did that.

    Tahoe Front wheel Spats

    I’ve already posted regarding this feature but thought I’d bring the topic up again. It’s the cheesy looking front wheel well flap that appears in front of the tire (known as a Spat). I ordered a 2024 RST Tahoe that’s scheduled for production in early January. The build site doesn’t show them...

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Point taken Jeff. In answer to your last question as to whether they’re needed or not I can’t say. My current observation is half of them have them and half of them don’t.

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    You were close enough, thanks. The explanation doesn’t make them look any better. If my 24 RST comes through with them I may have to deal with them the way n4gkj did. My current 2016 LT has the extended plastic skirt on the lower front but certainly nothing as crazy looking as these “spat” things.

    Yes sir, exactly what I’m referring to

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Don’t think we’re talking about the same thing. We are discussing the rubber flap or chap extending 8” (in front of the front tires) out of the wheel well. They’re being installed from the factory on late model Tahoes and I guess Suburbans

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Thanks for sharing that. I’d love to see the engineering stats on the aerodynamic benefits of those. Hard to believe they’re even worth the effort.

    I’m sure there’s validity in everything you stated. I’m personally not sure the perceived benefit is worth making a classic great looking vehicle look ridiculous with that silly add-on design

    2024 ordering?

    I’m curious bud. I ordered a 24 RST also, end of September. Dealer reported GM accepted it right away. The build has been pushed back three times so far. Currently scheduled first week in January. How are you making out with yours??

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    Thank you for the information. I noticed there is an option for upper and lower Aero airflow which supposedly aids in cooling the engine and aerodynamics? Not sure if those flaps are part of that. A lot of new ones don’t have the flaps so it could be tied to that option but I’m guessing. At any...

    Tahoe front wheel well SPATS

    I recently ordered a 2024 Tahoe RST, production has been pushed back twice already. Scheduled now for first week in January. I’ve taken notice that some of the 2023 models come through with rubber front wheel well flaps that extend down (in front) of the tires. Can someone answer what that...

    New 2024 owner incoming

    The sales guys seem to be the last to find out or know anything. I’m with you, love the current style. If the refreshed 25s ever come out and you like them better you can always trade your 24 and probably get close to what you paid for it in this market. Good luck to you

    Yukon Denali ultimate order

    Hi, my local dealership finally got me an allocation after I waited 5 months for one. I ordered a 2024 Tahoe RST on 29 September. Assembly was supposed to be in the second week of November. I spoke to GM Marketing yesterday and they’re telling me the build was pushed back to second week in...

    New 2024 owner incoming

    Hey good morning all, Thought I’d throw my two cents in on this current GM ordering process. I submitted an order for a 2024 Tahoe RST on 28 Sept. The order was accepted right away. I talked to someone in GM marketing and was told I was “priority” and the vehicle was scheduled for assembly 13...

    Z71 Tahoe Off Road Capability Option

    Gentlemen, I’m planning on replacing my 2016 LT Tahoe with a 2024 upcoming. Not sure if I’m going with a RST or Z71 at this point. My question is the Off Road Capability option on the Z71. From everything I read that model is enhanced having it whether on pavement or off. Attempting to build...

    RST Tahoe allocation

    May as well keep your new 23. Just stopped at my local dealer who told me he has no information on the pricing or availability on the 24’s but believes (as already reported here) there are zero changes. Except for the price no doubt for the 24’s.

    Need advice on my potential Yukon purchase situation

    Same situation with me. I waited 4 months for a RST allocation, dealer finally got one two weeks ago. First question I asked was what’s the current value of my 2016 LT with 42k. It dropped 5k in the four months since I first requested the allocation with no guarantee of that value upon delivery...

    2024 Tahoe at Detroit Auto Show

    Thanks bud, I was hoping for a few different color and wheel options but thought this might be the case.
