Not sure I want to do a 2-3 or 3-5 drop on my tahoe. It is a 05 Z71 that is murdered out stock. I plan on running a 22" wheel and I want to keep the same ride comfort. What kit is recommended for either of these and mine does not have autoride.

Thanks
John

Impossible. Larger wheel/smaller tire sidewall will make the ride feel stiffer and you'll feel more road bumps. As to that the stiffer suspension from lowering and your poor back will ache.

Oh now that is not entirely true. Ride may be a little stiffer but a lot of people barely notice the change in ride.

ride is very nice on the rear springs and only other thing I would do is add in the belltech rear street performance shocks and you will be very happy with results.

I know the lower the stiffer but just didn't want to get a jacked up kit. Thanks Tony and will hopefully be contacting you in the next couple weeks once insurance settles up for lady running my wife off road in it, that is if it don't total...

Thanks
