Opinion Time - Upgrades for 2021 Z71 Suburban

[TexasTZ71]

Hello everyone. Early January I’m going to go ham and mod the suburban. Black on black with chrome delete from factory.

I will be getting the RC 6” lift and I already have window tint and drop down dvd.

Would like opinions on the following:

1) upgraded shocks
2) Rims - KMC, Black Rhino or Fuel? I’ve been torn bc there are so many out there. Will be 20’s. Don’t have to be those 3 brands. I’d prefer small rim and more rubber but I read it has to be a 20”. List specific models.
2.5) Rim color - Matte or gloss black? Gun metal?
3) Tires - I typically go BFG AT (will be getting 35’s no matter the brand). I do like aggressive look. Toyo? nitro? pro comp?
4) Exhaust - I’m leaning on Corsa single side exit but the Gibson sounds nice too. Muffler only?
5) Grill guard - Yay or nay? Looking at Ranch Hands
6) anything else worth getting? CAI? Roof rack? Truck Nutz? (Jk)

PS I know I’m not going to fit in garage so no restrictions from that.

Budget is $12k but I can go over. What do y’all think?

King Coilover replacements, someone has got to have UCAs for them by now. Call the west coast shops.

I think the grille guards might be problematic mounting them with the skid plate that comes with the Z71.

What drop down dvd did you do. Will you post pictures

No on the grill guard or any roof stuff. Yes on the corsa. Who told you the wheels had to be 20’s? That isn’t correct. 17’s and 18’s are fine. I wouldn’t dump a load of $ into shocks unless you really want it.

Finer print smudges from the kids. It has DVD player and wireless streaming and apps. We play Netflix and Disney+ using the cars WiFi. No remote but can be easily controlled by app on your phone.

2nd vote for no on the grill guard, those things look hideous on pretty much any vehicle. Roof racks/baskets/boxes on the other hand look awesome so I'd definitely do something up top.
