Thanks man! Still have it but replaced the blue x5 with a GWagon. Been over 2 years now with since lowering it and it’s time to go back to stock. My wife will be using it for work and she hates the ride and rubbing. Been fun though! Here’s photos of it as it sits now below. The only things that have been added since lowering with a Maxtrac 2/3 kit and running 24” wheels are, 1” bolt-on wheel spacers, flares to sit flush with the offset of the wheels, and more vinyl wrap.

Looks nice. What is the width and offset of your 24’s?

The lifted/level guys have a chain going, let's see what the lowered crew has accomplished.

Provide your setup details/specs to share with the class.

Had a 16 ram single cab with a 2-4 drop
Stock wheels 225/60/16s .
Traded for a 21tacoma .
Regretted it almost immediately.
After the lease was up
Sold it and made $5000 back.

Got me this clean 03 Tahoe
And slapped on the 16x10 wheels
245/50 tires
And 2 inch lower springs in the rear .

Love having the V8 power n prestige back .

Very interesting look, I respect it, but you should show it off in a different gen thread. Side note; That thing must show double the speed on your speedometer with those wheels lol

Huh? Its pretty much a stock size tire as far as height goes.

Was this your net offset AFTER you added the 1" bolt-on wheels spacers?
Or are the rims 24" x 10" +27mm offset then you added the 1" bolt-on wheels spacers onto that?

I have some 24" x 10" +28mm offset rims and trying to get an idea of how they would sit on a newer '21+ GM SUV.

Lastly; Are you running 295/35/24 or 305/35/24 size tires in these pics?

03 Tahoe tires are about 30.5 inches tall. 245/50r16 is 5” smaller…

+27 are the offset of the wheels without the spacer. +28 offset on a 10” wide wheel will sit almost perfectly flush on a 21’+ GM SUV. Keep in mind of the style of the wheels you have and the curvature of the spokes. Mine are a concave style and the spokes actually hit the brake calipers without any spacers. I had to add 1/2” spacers to clear the front brakes. I then stepped up to a 1” spacer to compensate for the fender flares. Although I’m now suffering more rubbing issues. I’m running 305/35’s
