New 22" Wheels on Today...WOo WoO

[zona]

After my previous post asking about wheels I decided on the OEM CK375. I just put them on this evening. They have goodyear Fortera SL Edition 285/45/22.

I got them with the chevy sign but the chrome GMC caps are coming in next week with the GMC in red. I see most use solid chrome so I thought to be different.

What a difference this made. I am loving it and the wheels seem to look bigger than just 22's you see rolling around.

Here are some pictures I took today. I did not get a chance to wash it but I will tomorrow and try to get a proper photoshoot with a nice background.

They definitely look bigger than most 22s since the spokes go all the way to the tire.

Awesome choice! What's next? Needs at least a rear drop.

And the last pics with the effects are bada$$

Thanks, next up I have ordered the the cadillac escalade rear third break spoiler and hitch cover. Once I get those I will have them and my rear window panels painted to match the diamond white. Then luggage rack and if I could get my hands on the side step with the chrome piece.

I would like to get the rear bumper but its not priority just yet, I know it looks better but maybe once mine gets a little scuffed up. Its only two months old.

I was thinking about an exhaust and intake but my wife does not really want it as she likes how its nice and quite.

Thats about it...I have HID's already. Not going to get booms it already has the bose sounds so its pretty good there...

Someone suggested a rear drop but, originally I did not want to mess with the suspension as it is 4x4. However if I do decide to because I know it does look nice when they sit level it will be later down the road and I will have to check with warranty to make sure it will not void it. I was told altering suspension could void warranty from the sales person. At first I was going to lift it with some 22x14 but decided not to after our conversation and went down the yukonalilade path.

Cheers.

Looks sweet! Every time i see those wheels it makes me want them even more. They are awesome!!! The red centers will look really good too. I think your next little mod should be debadging all chrome lettering and re-badging rear GMC above license plate. See (soulsea) serges' looks awesome!

I did those two mods on my Tahoe but the Esky/Denali hitch cover isn't going to fit on your bumper. You will have to get the whole Esky/Denali rear bumper cover/step pad/chrome trim if you want that hitch cover on there. Man you got those rims quick huh? Did you get them at a local dealership?

Looks amazing...i think thats the wheels ill be looking for soon

 

[07Burb]

Looks great!!!! Now just needs a small drop

 

[OHSIXX]

Looks really G-O-O-D

 

[Pachanga02]

Looks great with those wheels. I finally found a set on craigslist but he wanted 2800 and the tires were beat. I have a set of escalade running boards that I'm selling but passenger side is missing a piece of chrome by the rear tire

Thanks I just checked with my warranty and I can not drop it. It will void my warranty, I can not even add and exhaust or just a tip. So it will have to roll like this for a very long time as we got the extended warranty to.

Hey ZONA, i talked to my dealership and they said if it was a cat-back exhaust it would not void the warranty. I bought the extended warranty also so i was a little timid at first.

No such thing buddy.
If you drop it the dealer only has the right to refuse a suspension repair/replacement if they feel the aftermarket swap caused it. So if your SUV starts groaning unusually after a drop they will not fix it, and should not fix it. They will not, and cannot void your whole warranty on the Yukon.
Same thing goes for the exhaust. I have a generously customized Tahoe and I still get warranty work done at the dealer on occasion.
For example, the dealer will still fix a dead A/C compressor if you have a 12" lift, 40" tires, and a 5000k audio system in the Yukon because those things cannot affect the compressor.

^^ what he said... Nicely put Modded!! To add-on to his statement - Beware that the dealers may also note that the vehicle has been modified, even if the mod has nothing to do with the service visit. For example, when my 08 Yukon was in for A/C service they warned me about the exhaust setup, and in the notes section of the service receipt they also stated something similar to: "Aftermarket exhaust installed allowing dangerous gases to enter cabin area, not recommended.". My exhaust played absolutely no role in the A/C performance issue, but they made sure to document their observance... for future reference or otherwise.

Yeah I have had my fair share of dealing with those service reps. I think that Chevy at least here have some pretty lame customer care skills and I have always left mad. I purchased a brand new 2003 Chevy truck years ago. I had them change out the leather to peanut butter. The dealer ship did this as an upgrade. I took back the following week to have them install it. a few months down the road my window would not roll down and they blamed it on the leather. I was like what?? You have to be kidding me. how can leather effect a window? The said because the door panel was altered and when installing the leather kit they could have removed the door panel and could have caused damage. I was like you guy sold me the leather kit and you guys installed it! Well after all that It was covered under warranty. Why the hassle to begin with though? Anytime I took it into service they tried telling me I was going to have to pay because of this or that and at the end of the day things were covered except one time.

This is why I hesitate to mess with things especially when it says in your warranty papers what will void your warranty.

I agree one has nothing to do with the other but this vehicle is only two months old and we paid a lot of mula$$ for it and I do not want to be in that situation. God forbid they say something about the wheels. But they are OEM GM wheels so hopefully there will never be a problem.
