Belltech Coilover System with 24" wheels & 305 tires

Hey guys,

I am new to this forum and you guys seem like an awesome group of people with a wealth of information on SUV's that I can learn from.

I have a 2002 GMC Yukon Denali that I want to put 24" wheels on with 305 tires and Full coilover system (2/3 is what I will set the Coilovers to).
Would I have rubbing issues in the front when turning? - I am still contemplating between 22" or 24" wheels.

This is the kit I am going with:

Any help or incite you guys can offer would be awesome.

With the correct offset wheel it shouldn't rub, I'd recommend belltech spindles and 3" rear springs. The belltech 2/3 kit with spindles will include shock extensions and shorter autoride links for the rear. Spindle kit will cost more but it's honestly worth the money if you plan to keep the autoride, I don't know what you're talking about in regard to the coilovers...you may have the 07+ suspension confused with these trucks. Your yukon has torsion bars up front and coil springs in rear, unless you plan on extensively modifying the suspension I'd stick to a basic 2/3 belltech kit with spindles, my truck rides great and turns with a stock radius.

I have 305/35/24's on my 04 denali with a groundforce 2/3 kit. I only rub in the rear when going up an incline and it is barely noticable. Go with the 24's and the 2/3 kit that Max recomends!!!

 

[coopiesb]

im running 305 22's and like blackdenali said only when i got up inclines like on a driveway or turning out of a parkinglot

 

[blueflamed03]

welcome maybe do a 285 instead of a 305?

 

[B0$$MAN]

Thanks guys!

MAX - could you give me a link to the kit that you described?

Also, as I stated before, I am stuck between 22's or 24's. I found the new 2007+ Model Denali Wheels on Ebay with tires; Do the new Denali's have the same bolt pattern as my year model (2002)?

These are the wheels:

P.S. I will post up pictures of my Denali after the wheels get put on ;p I already have everything else done =] hehehe

Someone tell me that I'm not seeing things with the price of that kit! What is the drop on it? There isn't any specifications on the page.

Belltech changed their part #s so I'll have to check. We're a belltech dealer so I'll call em monday and see what the deal is, uses 2508 spindles and 5303 coils along with 6651 shock extensions. Think the kit was around $600 or so with spindles, definitely do the spindle kit.

That isn't bad at all. Let me know because I want to order the suspension and wheels this week.

You think I should go for those 2007+ 22" wheels? I am going to powdercoat whatever wheels I get black since everything is black on my denali.

 

[Max]

They make replicas of the nnbs esky 22s that are painted silver, I almost bought some when I had my 20s powdercoated. Still have no idea what wheels I want if I ever upgrade to a 22, love my light 20s and big ass tires tho.

I like the wheels I posted from ebay the best. In some pictures 22's look too small on the Denali and in others 24's look way too big. I kind of want to be in the middle so all my engine mods will actually make a difference.

Is there anyway you could send me a picture of your denali so I get an idea of what 22's will look like?

 

[Max]

I have 20s with 275/55/20 tires

 

[B0$$MAN]

Oh wow that looks awesome!
I am definitely just going with 22's.
you have the belltech 2/3 drop right?

 

[Max]

lol no it's 6" in front and a bit over 5" in the rear. Here is what a 3/4ish would look like

 

[B0$$MAN]

If I get 22's and go with the 2/3 then it would look like the 3/4 with 20's?

 

[Max]

Pretty close, I'd run a 285/40/22 with a 3/5 drop.

Yea I was thinking about going with 285's since 305 is just too much rubber I think.

Let me know on Monday about the Belltech 3/4 drop (not 3/5). I want to order it this week along with my wheels.

How will the drop look in the winter if I ever go back to stock setup for the snowing months?
