Was looking on Cragar’s website and they didn’t have any wheels to fit my 2012 Yukon Denali. I’m assuming due to rotor size? I know factory rims at 20” but is 18” really the smallest I can run?

if Cragar isn’t an option I’m open to suggestions. Really look to stick to the black steel wheel with chrome center cap look. Will probably be putting a level kit in at the same time. Any recommendations?

thanks!

Because Cragar makes wheels for classic muscle cars. Maybe PPV or transport wheels would be what you’re looking for.

I found it easier to rest the tape measure on the axle housing while taking the picture with my other hand. ;)

I have black transit wheels with GMC center caps that I may be selling after this winter. They currently have a set of Blizzaks on them as my winter setup, but I am at the end of the life for the tires. I will probably be using my factory 20's for a new winter setup next year and then get a nicer summer set. I could probably let them go for the right price. They would come with TPS sensors.

If you could, explain to me how this ‘idea’ is stupid?

Then, if you could, explain a scenario where someone who can’t even put together a legitimate sentence has any right to call something, or an idea ‘stupid’ ???

My guess is why downsize to 17’s when Denali’s come with 20’s. Not sure though. Would you please explain @chadw as I’m curious as well. Personally I’m digging black 17’s with a larger sidewall on the Denali...

Old photo: Since then I’ve replaced center caps, painted front clip and grills, new headlights, smoked the fogs, and tinted the windows, and cracked an axle tube. :D

My wife has 22’s and I’m digging those as well, but sadly that’s the end of customizing that one. :(

Precisely, I prefer the look you have over 20” + rims. Lot of poorly maintained roads and potholes around here as well.

As someone pointed out with a link earlier, check out Vision’s lineup. I put a set of 142 in Gunmetal Grey. They remind me of some old ARR or Crags.
