What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[iamdub]

I really like those wheels! How can I find them? I know they are on gmc but which one and year?

I think just the GMT900 Sierra. It had two styles of the cladded wheels, but the wheel itself, underneath the cladding, is the same for both. The Silverado also had two styles of cladded wheel. Like most Chevy wheels, they were a 5-spoke design. Not many run that one cuz it has a large recessed circle around the lug nuts that requires a large center cap to hide. I think the go-to is to use the center cap from the GMT800 ("NBS") 17" wheel. Even still, it looks like some cheesy 90s sport car wheel.


These are the two styles of factory chrome-cladded GMC wheels:

Hmmm. Actually, it looks like there may be a third:

The Chevrolet versions:

what emissions plate? the numbers you need are on the airbox, anyway you can have any muffler shop order some magnaflow's and have them welded on, some shops may have them in stock or can have them the next day.

I upgraded to a K&N Intake 10 years ago and never saved the plate that was on the air box. I got some quotes for the magnaflow that are meet CA emissions, just didn’t want to spend $1500. Just have it eat it on this one. 210k Miles and going strong!!!

Definitely like the 6 spoke better but either way they look so much better when the cladding is removed!

Meh. It has potential. That one is polished and has a low-profile tire on it so it looks a little better.

It looks like an older A.R.E rim--was popular when I was younger.

who quoted you that price? and what was the breakdown? all they have to do is cut the old cat's out and weld in the new ones.
I got mine put on last year I am thinking paid like half of what you were quoted or I am wrong about the price in which case it could have been $1200 but I don't remember paying that much, I think maybe the price has gone up on the cat's seems like I remember them only costing around $350 each, my receipt is in the truck and it's at the transmission shop until next week I can check when I get it back.

Did you replace your overflow cap while you were at it? Often overlooked, I almost forgot to order one with my recent “100k” full fluid flush & tune up.

This is what I recently put on the Denali. They reminded me of an old set of ARR’s I had on my 87’ Grand National. Damn I miss that car.
These wheels in “gunmetal” were closest thing I could find to match storm gray. Now to either bite the bullet on a new set of 22” tires and hope the bead on my chromes holds better than last winter, or pick up a different set of wheels and in doing so, switch over to something other than chrome. Aluminum perhaps? 22’s Alums can’t be friendly on the pocketbook.

That’s exactly what I was thinking!

I actually don't mind that one.

 

[Sparksalot]

Got this little gem in the Mail. Four extra switches I can repurpose. Maybe five if you consider the pedal switch is a rocker.

 

[Tonyrodz]

I actually don't mind that one.

This one reminds me of the old--maybe 1982--Mustang TRX metric rims. Any OG(Old Guys)remember those lol?

And they polished 'em! I wasn't goin that far with mine since I planned to paint 'em black. #factoryracewheels

You can make rings to snap in factory center caps out of 3" Sch.40 PVC. (I think Sch.40 is what I used) https://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/threads/growing-up-doesnt-have-to-suck.93510/page-26#post-1353960

I'll have to check that out, because I will want something to fill the hole lol

 

[1BADI5]

Well just got home from picking up the wheels. The guy I got them from said he spent 3 days decladding them. Win for me.

Got 19.5 mpg round trip.........damn good for a cammed, stalled and geared PPV.

Since it never happened unless there's pics
