Don't think I'll lower it, got to be able to tow my 6x12 enclosed trailer.... Probably just do a couple exterior mods.. new llights and corners up front, billet grill, air shocks in the rear, etc....

I couldn't pass them up, had a guy I know trade my straight up for my stocks.... And I am picking up a full grill guard for the front like you have 992door.....

Not sure if it'll look good though.....

i don't know about the grill guard. don't take this the wrong way but the wheels would look better on a 2WD with it lowered. you have a Z71 (or are they just stickers?). i woulda gone the opposite direction - rugged, especially if you're considering a grill guard. just my opinion.

Yes it's a Z71 and I thought about the rugged look myself but couldn't pass upi the deal... Stocks for 22's ...hmmmmm let me think, YA! And the tires are almost new....

I can always down trade to 20's or 18's with bigger tires, but it's hard to trade up like I did so I took the offer.... And the guy who had them has known the family for a few years.

GREAT TRADE!

I agree with Pro-Camp not a fan of the design of the rim. I don't like where they spoke meets the rim itself!

EXCELLENT UPGRADE!

SAY NO TO GRILL GUARD!

ha damn nice trade! but i agree with them that tahoe has so much potential for a good looking off road tahoe to keep rims like that. but you would have been an idiot not to make that trade though.. GOOD DEAL

not quite my style rims but it looks good.

anything free is awesome!

Thats what i thought, but they are kinda growing on me..

hell if you go the off-road way you can sell them and make some good money.

That was my other thought... trade down or up depending on which way you look at it or sell 'em and buy new ones..... I originally was thinking 18's with 285/65 or somewhere around there...
