6.5 Zone lift!

[Cshayes2]

So after about 2 years of putting it off in order to get other stuff, I finally ordered a 6.5 zone lift this afternoon with Fox rear shocks. About $1540 shipped to my house, scheduled for next friday for me to bring it in to the shop and they install it for me, I would do it myself but I have no assistance. Pictures to come when the lift comes in as well as when its installed of course

For the time being I'm going to keep the rims and tires I have now, 275/65/20 Toyo AT II, and 2015 matte black sierra replicas. I do eventually wanna get some 35X12.50s in either Toyo/Nitto MT or the Toyo AT IIs, with Fuel rims. I had to demold the side which I didn't really want to do but it was starting to discolor and detach from the body. Tried to keep the Tahoe Emblems on but when I was using the 3M wheel it brushed the plastidip off it and I just decided Ill do the whole side. Heres some pics of how it sits now, and also my brothers tahoe ill be driving on and off while he's in Spain.

Wheels aren't bad now at all but some 35x12.50 toyo RT would look good on it. If me I would skip fuel wheels and go for forces or fuel forged. Do some 22x12 on 355/40R22 trail grapplers then some new gears. Lots of options to set it off

I really like the mavericks and for the price you can't beat them. The tires will happen when the ones I have on there now are worn out. Gotta consider price now because I'm in my senior year of college and I can't be spending 4k on rims and tires while Im also adjusting to paying for myself haha. Im a little nervous that the tires I have now are to skinny and might look funny lifted.

Please don't go with fuels as everyone and their children have them! Go somewhat unique on moto 976. But the 275 won't look bad as long as you have the wheel spacers

I like the 962 Motos but i run into the same problem as the mavericks with everyone having them. I may go RBP The all black 94R is nice, I had some on a dodge truck I used to have in high school. I figured it'd look decent, atleast acceptable until the tire wears out and I can replace with a wider tire.

Forces are becoming more popular than rockstars. Fuel forged, hostile or specialty forged are nice. I guess I'm just old school but rubber band tires on 3k+ wheels seems stupid. Truck becomes a useless show truck. But you gotta be #ballinforthegram

True forces are very popular in 3-4 styles. Other ones are rare depends on lug spoke pattern. Fuel forged are nice but way pricey over forces or used welds.
