Anybody else get the 20s on their Denali?

It's my understanding that air-ride automatically adjust ride height according to rode conditions while magnetic ride uses sensors to read road conditions and dampin shocks for better stability. Air-Ride (F47) requires 22" wheels

Can you provide a source? I'd like to read more into this as "premium capability" and 22's don't exactly mix.

I wonder if you can put the eLSD into a custom order without air ride and simply use the magnetic shocks.

It's just GM being greedy and forcing you into additional options. Air ride doesn't require 22" wheels (hence the Z71 having 20" wheels with air ride), however, GM won't let you order air ride without adding wheels out of simple greed. No physical limitations.

Yep, to each their own. Personally 20’s look hideous on these rigs. What an eye sore.

This is what I see when not on 22’s. Looking like Mario Kart. Different strokes for different folks…

Well, you must have bad vision. Actually the 275/60R20 tires are 0.2" larger in diameter than the 275/50R22's. So, the wheel well is more full w/ the 20" than the 22", it is just filled w/ Rubber instead of metal.

Full disclosure, I have 22's (Factory Standard) on my rig. But may run the 20's for Winter Tires.

Touché.
