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.

Love those wheels! You also have amazing quiver of vehicles but what happened to your exhaust? No pipes? Maybe it’s a diesel?

Appreciate that! I have LT with the 5.3 and the exhaust dumps downward beneath the car. If I keep it, I definitely plan on going with the dual exhaust swap.

I'd love to see some more Escalades with wheel spacers.

My wheels are tucked in too far, but I cant decide if I need 1", 1.25", or 1.5"

Also, I want Bora since they are made in USA, but they also seem hard to find.

I plan to add the lowering links as well.

I honestly don't know, but they appear to sit in the wheel well the same as OEM wheel
There are tools for measuring how large of a spacer you'd need to create flush fitment with your fender lines. I'd call around to local alignment or performance shops in seeing if they have this and can help figure out what you need. Keep in mind however, if you go with a 1" hub centric spacer (1.5" might be ok), the OEM studs may stick out too far past the spacer, therefore hitting the back end of your wheels. This would prohibit you from fitting them on. Unless you trim your studs, which I don't recommend. But that would be completely up to you.
