CCM kit was installed a couple weeks ago and we finally got the new tires on it last night. Im really happy with how it came out...although I am still considering a 2" body lift. :)

After

Found out there was already a 1" spacer on the front, so there wasnt quite as dramatic of a difference when we installed the CCM 2.5/1 kit, but still a noticeable difference. Switched the 20's out for some older stock 17's as I am not at all a fan of the 20's. Keeping my eyes peeled for some "prettier" 17's, but these will do the job for now. Tires are BFG A/T's 305/65/17, no rub at full lock and required no trimming. As it sits now, Im just shy of 2" taller than my husbands Silverado which has the CCM 2" front level installed. Needless to say, he isnt very happy now. Hehehe! :p Of course his new tires are still to come and will probably put us back to neck and neck, but Im relishing in it for the moment!

It looks great! If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay to install them? Or did you do it yourself?

I really like those wheels. Kudos to doing 17's with raised white letter tires.

I do like the color, thats for sure. The Nitto TG's are sweet looking, but we hadnt heard much on how they wear.

I couldnt agree more. It was the first thing torn off the truck!

Nice

Thank you. :)

It looks good but I would have kept the 20's and ran 305's. You should take off the neft bars and tint that baby out.

Not a fan of the 20's and Im glad to see them go. Id love to ditch the nerf bars too (although I much, much, MUCH prefer them over the running boards), but I have a three year old who climbs in and out of this truck. I also have a 9 month old who will one day be climbing in and out of the truck too. They win, I lose, nerf bars have to stay. So sad for me. :( At least they are chrome! I do like chrome. :)

Looks great

Thank you. :)

Looks great. I really like the 17 wheels. I think I am going to change mine out to 17 also. My truck is a 2010 and I think they came with 17 from the factory if you did not upgrade to the 20s so I hope mine fit like yours did.

Im certainly not a know it all, but I cant see why they wouldnt. I do know for certain that 16's wont fit! I dont know if you've read the entire thread, but the 16's I originally tried to put on the truck wouldnt clear the brake calipers. Not even with 1" spacers. So Ill save you that headache. lol! ;)
