CK-375 Wheels

[dmills21]

New member and have read through this forum a lot over the last couple of days. You guys have been a great source! Nothing better then to read comments from actual owners.

Regarding these GM Accessory wheels, do you notice any increase in road noise or lost ride comfort? I understand that they are a tab larger in diameter then the stock 20 inch, so is there a difference in speedometer/mpg?

Thanks for your opinions...I think I'm already sold, I just want to know what to expect, if anything.

Can't say enough good things about the CK375 ... as smooth a ride and quiet a ride as the stock 18s my truck came with.

As far as speedometer variation from 20s to 22s it's going to be minimal ... as in a mile here or there. Not sure the size tire your 20s came with but if you go with the recommended 285/45/22 tires on the CK375s you can plug in your tire size and this one here and see the differences: http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/infoTireMath.dos

Hit up KMeloney and JDSkycaster as well, they both upgraded to those wheels and had some great results.

I have stock 22" GM wheels and the ride feels just like the stock 20s.

Nothing much to add here. The ride is fantastic, and since the tires are the same as on my 20"s, there's no change in road noise (there still isn't any).

My SLT came with the stock 17" wheels. There is obviously a bit more road feel in the 22" 375's but the change in ride is minimal. I have experienced no change at all in fuel economy. This was a major upgrade in appearance for my truck and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

Best regards,

JD

I had CK916's (another factory/oem 22 option) on the Tahoe upgraded from the Factory 20's and there was minimal ride difference. DEFINITELY worth the difference in ride quality for the look of the 22's IMO.

Just keep in mind there is a trade off, but it sounds like this is a very good item. Larger wheels require smaller sidewall tires. Smaller sidewalls mean they need to be thicker, thus absorbing less bumps, which in turn is transferred through the steering wheel. The benefit is, larger diameter wheels improve turning handling, thus allowing a vehicle to conduct a turn at increased speed because of the decrease of lean the tire gives to. Based on what I've read, the CK375 wheel only minimally affects both.

The trade off is well worth it though

That's what I was trying to convey at the end of my last post. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

Man, the 375s are going the way of the slides ... I might have to change shoes.

On the other hand, sexy elegant never gets 'played out' ... what to do what to do ...

You're nuts. I rarely see the 375s anywhere around here, and just got two compliments last week on mine.

But, by all means, swap yours out for something else so that my truck looks that much more unique. lol

Yea I agree Serge... Sell em to me and buy some new ones

Hey guys. Have had my 375's for a couple of weeks on my Denali XL and couldn't be happier. Have gotten compliments left and right. As for the ride, you won't notice the difference from the 20's. I put Yokohama Paradas, and all I can say is WOW.
Got them through Robbie, who I must say is a tremendous individual.
This upgrade was a no brainer.

I have had factory 17's, 20's, 22's, and now a replica 24. You get a little softer ride with the 17's and 20's but its not an alarming difference in the ride even with the 24. I am in a little different boat then everyone else since I am not running a factory suspension but thought I would throw my 2 cents in.

Has anyone on here put CK375s on a stock tahoe LT with 305/40/22 tires?

Apparently you'll get a tiny bit of rubbing ... but that's what I'm going with on my next tire.
