Help decide which wheel setup

[Doug118]

Which wheels do you guys like better?

Questions and observations:

How'd you get both pics? Photoshop or what?

That thing is slammed. Normally I like factory wheels, but being that low almost begs for aftermarket larger wheels for the bling factor.

If you're going to customize the stance like that, I'd go ahead and remove the side molding.

I like the SIZE of the 24s, but not that style. If it were mine, and I was having issues from the 24s at that amount of drop, I'd probably use it as a justification to putting the stock 20s back on while I looked for 22s in a style that I liked.

 

[Doug118]

That is exactly how she currently sits. 20’s were last week and 24’s were put on last night

Raise it up a few and run 22s

The rubbing will be fixed on Monday when I get an alignment. Going to have them pull just enough camber so the tire clears the outer lip of the fender

No option, but I say 22” reps or OEM

 

[Fosscore]

Hmm...maybe different option. Look at @Rocket Man. He's not as low as you, but went from 26s and has been running 22s on The Beast and it looks really good. I think you could pull off the 22s at that height.

 

[Rocket Man]

I'd go with 22's or 24's but 24's might cause rubbing with that drop unless you either roll the fender lips or go with (yech) negative camber . Here's mine on 22 reps; like @Fosscore said I was running 26" Dub Ballers which looked nice but even with only a 2/4 drop and rolled fenders they still rubbed a bit. I bought the 22's as Winter wheels (one pothole took out a Dub) but decided I liked them. If I was to do it again, with my drop, I'd have gone 24's most likely. Myself, I don't care for either of the ones you have there but wheels are so personal. All that really matters is what makes you happy.

I like the size of the 24s but not the style of those. I know everyone has them, like @Rocket Man above and myself included, but I love the GMC reps. With your color Suburban I think the machined set in 24" would look awesome. I like the look of the stock wheels though if it's only between those 2.

Neither

You already know my opinion. Tubs + notch and do 6s

You don’t need tubs or a notch to do 26’s on these rigs unless you’re going to bag it and lay frame.

I need tubs in the front right now and I'm on a 275/30/24. The back could use a notch since the rear end has hit the frame a could times

I ran 305/30/26’s on the front of my 02 Denali with a 2/4 drop for 2 years with no issue so I have no idea why you think you need tubs. And if you’re hitting in the back you need to do the free travel mod otherwise the frame hits where the bump stops are mounted. Look it up, there’s info here on it. You also might need an adjustable panhard bar and control arms to center the rear wheels in the fender wells. Theres guys here running 26’s with 4/6 drops and no tubs or notches. Here's my Silvy with 26's
laid out; obviously notches and tubs needed.(Actually it has a complete custom frame) and my Denali with 26's at 2/4 drop and no notches or tubs.

 

[Doug118]

I need tubs because the fender sits on the tire with no one in the truck. This is a 6/6 drop. The inside of my fenderwells are purple from constant rubbing.

My frame in the rear was already cut. The crossmember above the rear end has been notched for the panhard bar mount since the truck was just sitting on that
