I'm a penny pinching bastard lol I stopped going to all the tire chain stores years ago I find better deals with the little single owner shops and they do cash deals, I go into a chain store and get sticker shock. 
What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

Those were my exact words when I noticed.

I've used a few smaller stores in the past but I can't seem to find anyone cheaper than Discount tire especially with a Military discount on top of whatever deal I usually wait for. Plus they honor the crap out of their warranty. Had my TPMS sensor replaced for free because when I got the tires mounted they replaced one but never made note of which one it was in the system. So he assumed it was the one they installed last year. I wasn't going to argue or tell them I've rotated the tires myself 20 times since I got them.
I guess it can depend on where you live seems like there is a tire shop on every corner around here so plenty of competition the one closest to me will bend over backwards to make a deal, does free rotation and repairs as long as you purchased from him. there are some shady ones out there for sure.
I have found only one shop I trust with my wheels, went through several when I originally ran 26’s on my Denali and finally found one that could mount, balance and align vehicles with big wheels and especially trusted them when I needed tires mounted on 26” billets that I waited 4 months and spent $6k on for my Silverado. As for the tires or TPMS sensors, I buy them online for way cheaper than any brick and mortar shop sells them for and just bring everything to them.

They have awesome customer service but treat their employees like crap. But they do hire kids still in high school learning so you gotta watch them. I can see them replacing the cap with no issue

Thats why I take the center caps and put them on at home. Tire guys will hammer them on with a 5lbs hammer.

It was a bit tedious with the tabs underneath. But I had to hammer out a bent bumper corner while I had it out. So made it worth it.Ive taken that bumper apart once , I will never do it again, even for some bright leds
Lots of dirt in the eyes even with glasses on lol
I’m planning on getting those exact ones haha
View attachment 249880 Replaced the DRL sockets only to realize that I should’ve just bought the module and relay at the same time just in case they didn’t come on (they didn’t)

Nice. Gotta see what those look like at night. Which brand are you going with?
Moderators--Besides the "Like" button, maybe we should also have a "Dislike" or "Sux" button.
Just a thought.

Not yet. Tonight I will, gotta give the Denali a hot bubble sponge bath lol
Module and relay for DRL? You do realize they only come on during the day, with the truck in drive, right? You can get them to come on without starting the truck by turning the key to the on position where your cluster lights up and put the shifter in drive, then get out and look.

Got some new wheels yesterday. Sold my curbed 22x12s on used 305s and bought a nice set of 22x14 fuel mavericks and 375 nittos. Now I just have to figure out how I’m gonna turn...
