Well it's a longish story. The hybrids sit about an inch lower from stock than regular tahoes. By the time I was done, the truck looked beautiful, but the combination of 24s, drop, and the state of DC streets made the ride way too stiff and uncomfortable. The only way for me to improve it would have been for me to start cutting stuff to do the rear free travel mod. So I decided to take it off. But don't take my experience as one to go by, the hybrids are unique vehicles, with unique balancing and setup, and many who have bought the same kit I had are very happy with it. It just was't for me. So the rear only 2" drop is the only possibility for me as it would take less of a toll on the truck.
