    Need some input

    I went with A CCM 2.5 inch Level for my 07 Tahoe. Added Bilstein 5100 shocks which I believe you can use to level the front with as well. Ride quality is better than stock. When I got tires installed they even were surprised how well it rode. Not sure what to say on the wheels, I'm still trying...

    A level along with some nice new wheels and slightly bigger tires would make a big difference in the look.

    Tahoe/Yukon Headlight Information Thread

    I have used latex gloves when installing them before. I never had a moisture problem though. But recently I have noticed on the one headlight the center piece that covers the front of the bulb, the hood thing or whatever you call it, is loose now. Might have to buy a new housing.

    Tahoe/Yukon Headlight Information Thread

    Silverstar Ultras are nice but I haven't been able to get a full year out of them yet. That brighter whiter light comes at a price of burning out fast.

    Let's see some pics of some lifted and leveled

    I'm running 285/70/R17 with the 2.5 CCM level. I was told my stock wheels are a +31 offset. Not sure what stock wheels your running or if they are a similar offset. I want to get Fuel Beast wheels but in a -12 offset. I was told they'll stick out about an inch which I don't mind. I just want a...

    Leveling/wheel question

    I believe it will by about an inch. I have a 2.5 CCM level on 07 Tahoe with 285/70R17 tires with stock wheels which I believe are a +31 offset. I want -12 offset Fuel Beast wheels and was told it would stick out which is what I am looking for. Heres a pic of my truck for comparison. I was also...

    Help me decide my rim and tire size!

    33's will work ok. I have 285/70R17's which is basically a 33 and have no rubbing issues on my Hoe. I'm on stock wheels though. I think your main concern is what I am trying to figure out and that is wheel offset. The more negative offset the more the tires will be pushed out and also cause the...

    07 Burb Z71 tires

    35X12.5 R18 won't fit without a lift and/or trimming https://tiresize.com/comparison/ I put in the stock tire for my 07 Tahoe 265/70R17 and its pretty much the same size as a 285/60/R18 so those should fit. I put a 2.5 level on mine to fit 285/70R17 which is close to a 33X12.50 with no trimming.

    Jacked Up Escalade

    I have't seen too many lifted SUV's around my way yet. Only a few and always a treat to see a lifted Tahoe. But tons of lifted 4 door pick ups with thin tires and deep deep dishes. And of course tons of lifted Jeeps that probably never see the woods or mud.

    CCM before and after

    Looks good. And I agree stick with your current tires until they are up for replacement. I did the CCM level and also upgraded my shocks to Bilstein 5100's which I can't recommend enough as the ride is now better than stock. For tires I went from a 265/70R17 to a 285/70R17 Basically a 33 with no...

    Bilstein 5100 and leveling kit advice -updated. Job done

    I almost went with the BFG's because I used them before on my old K5 Blazer years ago. They were great back then but I guess things change. Running a set of Falken Wild Peaks AT3 now and so far they are great in the rain and dry roads. Haven't off-roaded them yet though.

    09 LTZ question.

    I recently put on a CCM 2.5 inch front 1 inch rear level and added Bilstein 5100 shocks. Rides great, better than stock I think. No regrets. Its as high as I wanted. Still practical and looks much better.

    Anybody running Fox shocks?

    Everything else is stock except for the CCM level and I was also have Moog Upper control arms put in.

    Anybody running Fox shocks?

    I've read good things about Fox shocks. I don't run them but went with Bilstein 5100 shocks which the front struts/shocks have the ability to lift. Night and day ride quality over stock in my opinion. Even my tire guy said he couldn't believe how good my Tahoe road especially after the tires...

    Level on 17's

    Another update for those who might be interested. Finally got new tires. I'll have to wait for new wheels as I had to divert that money to more pressing needs elsewhere. The tires are Falken Wild Peaks AT3 P285/70R17. They ride great and I think look great too. Even the guy at the tire store...

    All-terrain Tires

    I just got my Falken Wild Peaks AT3 alll terrains installed and they ride real nice on the road. Great grip in the rain as well. They have an aggressive look as well if you looking for that

    Thinking of piecing together a big leveling kit, what's your thoughts

    Looks great. My hoe is the same color. Thought of going with the Ridge Grapplers too.

    Level on 17's

    Thanks for the in depth reply. I did notice the no warranty on the LT tires and also with the Falken tires the P metrics carry the three peak snow rating but the LT does not. I think I'll go with the LT ones since I rather have a little more durability than comfort or gas mileage. Sent from...

    Level on 17's

    Finally got some pictures of my leveled Tahoe. I feel like it's a little bit higher in the front. Although the measurements are close at just 39" from ground to middle of fender/wheel well. I also had the lower control arms replaced as they were bad according to my mechanic. It was the main...

    Bilstein 5100 question

    Ok thanks. Just wanted to be sure. Getting new lower control arms as well since the originals need replacing.

    Bilstein 5100 question

    I am gathering my parts for my 2007 Tahoe. I bought the CCM 2.5 level and decided to get shocks as well. I ordered the Bilstein 5100's front struts 24-186940 and the rear shocks 24-187237. Will I have any issues with this combo since I realize you can level with just the shocks. I think I read...

    Level on 17's

    Sorry for the late reply and I want to thank everyone for their replies. I'm finally at the point of where I can now purchase the level, tires and rims. Kind of timing of tax return was good and my front end suspension needing work now. Here's where I'm at now as of what I want to buy and...
