I am ordering the ccm key kit with shock extenders and spacer for the rear, I would like to see what yall are running on stock wheels to see if I like the look or if I wanna get some aftermarket black wheels to match the black exterior of my Hoe.

1st post but long time tinkerer, I'm coming from bagged rides to lifted as necessity.

Why did you put Z71 in the rear? Good looking Tahoe btw. I am undecided if I wanna do tires on stock wheels or if I wanna do black wheels. Or black stock wheels. I have a leveling kit ordered, 2.5-3 front and 1" rear so once I get it on I am gonna decide on wheels and tires.

Did that to get factory rake back also had slight rub over bumps out back with 33s. So with the rc spacers and z71 springs its 1.968 inches taller in the rear. Rc spacers for the ls lift kit are 3/4 inch. The height of the z71 springs is 3/4 inches taller than the ls springs. I also have load range E tires firm ride but worth it.

Only lift keys in front. I still have about another inch of threads on my torsion bolts but I don't like the idea of all that crap in the front being bound up.

I agree I'm bout the same. I am going with 18" wheels, decided on raceline assault 18x9. Just gotta decide on what offset.

I like it but just so many people have it. Thad why I like the assault wheel, not to many around my area with it.

Wanting the wheel to be either flush with fender flares or less don't want them sticking out any.

the 18x9 +25mm offset will be just inside a bare fender. the +12mm offset one should still stay under a flare.

depending on tire width of course....

275 should be fine regardless of offset. I'd go with the +12mm.

+19mm seems to be the magic number for staying under the fender as far as lowered setups go.
