Jonah52's Denali Build Thread

[YuCanada]

Are ck375s that common that it is an issue for you?

I've never seen any before in person other than my own. Plenty on TYF but have never seen any otherwise.

Yea it may be common on this extremely niche forum. But in real life I don't see them too often. I'm sure many on here will agree with me.

100% agree....things that are "common" or "played out" on this forum or even on Instagram doesn't necessarily equal the same in your area. I do see CK375s occasionally in my area but not very often. The Sierra Reps I just put on are ALL OVER THE PLACE on IG but i've never seen them on anyone else's vehicle but mine in person so looking at it through the forum or social media is kind of a distorted lens.

^dude knows what he's talking about

I've seen maybe 4-5 sets around here...lots of gmt900 around me. But no denali's with them. Mostly burbs

I probably won't do anything right away just because of time. And I probably won't buy wheels until I find a good deal or need tires.

I'm really thinking about the 2015 molding and having it buffed though too. Would also like to get my exhaust done too. Those are first on the list.

It just isn't working. It just looks awkward to me, and i'm also sick of the ride and service suspension light constantly being on....

Not sure on wheels Lee recommended ck156, and other suggestions? Bout buying soon, but actively looking. I love 375's....but thats too common.

Have to do a lift right like mine. The service suspension light will go away easy with just longer ride height rods. The ride quality should be same then because its just a strut extension. It looks better with a deeper offset wheel and tire combo. Has to be done right for a Denali to pull off a lift

Yeah like I said, I'm looking into the rids like we talked about in PM's....whatever wheels I buy will decide which direction I go.

Either 18's or 22's I'm just really indecisive. Lol

I still might give it a go we'll see.

I'm not pulling anything off yet.

2.5'' front 1.5'' rear. Factory sized 275/55/20 for now. Tires are pirelli scorpion ATR.

[/COLOR]We moved into a new house recently (hence the pic with construction fencing and our unfinished yard). Put the denali to work doing about 7-8 loads in the trailer, that were super heavy, she did great but sucked down the fuel. Also shown is my feeble attempt to get the condensation out of my headlights, new ones on order soon with HID's.

Also, I finally got a spot in the garage!!!!

lol thoughts on progress? I forgot to update this thread from 3 weeks ago haha

Looks good She's coming along

 

[Jonah52]

Im trying to decide which way to go wheels wise. I think some black and milled wheels would look good, but I also think if i got some 33's and polished my 20's it would be a really clean lifted look.

 

[07Burb]

I think you'd do well to stay with a chrome wheel (either your stockers or otherwise) to go with the chrome on the Denali.

 

[Jonah52]

I think if I got the beefier tires I'm looking at (275/60/20 Cooper LTZ) and polished and sealed my wheels I'd be happy with that set up. The I would get the 2015 chrome trim and go that route to slim down the door trim. Clean and stockish.

And if I don't like it I'll sell the tires, remove the lift, and go to 22's. Never hurt to try lol

 

[YuCanada]

You can always keep the lift with 22s like Felix had before. Looks really good too.

Do you have a picture of a nnbs with the 15+ trim? I'm curious as to how it looks on there I haven't seen any.
