2008 Z71 Tahoe with a 2” Rough country leveling kit, 1” rear spacer, Nitto Terra Grapplers 305/50 r20 with Procomp 20” chrome rims Ranch hand Brush Guard and rear taillight guards… Inside has a JL Audio 500 watt V2 amp running 1 JL Audio 10” W7 sub in a custom box…

Everything else is totally stock, Any recommendations on what to do next?

I’m thinking an intake exhaust and a programmer… then probably a navigation system..

Thank u buddy... did the lift 1st and was trying to conserve $.. ($295 installed)... then got carried away... that ranch hand brush guard is so solid I’m pretty sure I could take out a prison wall, or at least a deer.

here are a couple more pics

Thanks guys... I’m still up in the air on what to do next... I might be out of options, at least options that don’t break the bank…

I’m actually considering some Piaa fog lights for the front and maybe some rear flood lights as well... I’ve never heard of Black Bear or Nelson... was gonna get one of the programmers that stay installed and you can change the output on the fly

Here r the 4 stagers of my Tahoe

1) bone stock (brand new).

2) stock 20's w/ 305 50 nitto terra grapplers (got stolen).

3) stock 18's w/ BFG a/t 275-65 r 18, black bowties.

4) procomp 20's w/ 305 50 grapplers, 2' leveling kit, 1" spacer, ranch hand brush guard, rear taillight guards

Truck looks awesome man!
What do you measure from center wheel to wheel well?
You ran a 305 50 on stocks and didn't rub?
What offset did you get your wheels?

Sorry for all the questions, just got my wife a Tahoe but 2 wd.

The last stage looks real good man. I just ordered my CCM 2.5/1 and I have the same tires as you so I hope it looks half as good as that.

I have stock 20'a with 305/50/20 terra grapplers and it rubs in reverse/full lock. I'm hoping the CCM 2.5/1 will remedy that.

The 305 50's on stock 20's w/ no lift rubbed when i was going up driveways... the 305 55's rubbed real bad w/ a 2" lift till i trimmed the fender wells... they look good, but the head ache associated w/ the rubbing issue isn’t worth it... just put on a leveling kit if u r gonna put 305 50's...

Chevys are the only trucks w/ this issue... the fenders are just oddly shaped... Fords Dodges Toyotas and Nissans don’t have this issue...
