My 07 LTZ Suburban build..

Thought I'd share with you guys how my burb is progressing...

The day I bought her

Her new spot behind my 68 Caprice

Took some time to decide on a wheel, I didn't want an all chrome wheel but I wanted a chrome lip, loved the U2 look but the black version has a black lip:emotions122: So I decided to buy the chrome U2s and cover the entire face with vinyl. 28" U255

After talking to the graphics guy that did the vinyl, he convinced me not to cover the entire spoke of the wheel. Really like how it turned out..

Couldn't even wait for the tires to arrive to snap pics..

Awesome, not too many 28s here that i know of. U2-55's are so sick, great choice. Keep us updated!

Nice! Sounds like you are off to a great start with modding. Any plans for a performance tune?

Thanks, tell u the truth it was good to see folks on 4s and 6s. Most Chevy forums I've found seem to be full of people who chastise others for mounting big wheels.. Shut up and stunt! lol

Appreciate it man..when I saw your rig on CF, I immediately had to get those G4s lol thanks for the inspiration:gr_grin:

Don't know much about tuning at all, I began reading some of the BB threads but when I checked the tour map, they come nowhere near me. Can any custom shop do these performance tunes? I definitely want more power..

They can do a mail order tune from them as well or just travel to them or organize one for your area.

well you have a few options.. find a local EFI Live tuner.. or you can send your computer to BB and they will tune your computer and send it back to you... thats a very easy way to get a bb tune... not all local people can do a live remapping and custom tune.. and a plug and go tuner is junk compared to these vehicle specific tunes...

Wow, thanks! Damn I wish I'd found this site sooner. Most of my holdups have been due to not being able to find parts. Any idea on how much they cost?
