Wifes 2013 2WD Yukon. No air ride. She just wants something that slightly lifted. She drives our 2 little girls all over the place and we take it to the beach a few time a years. So she really wanted the ride quality to remain as stock as possible. Came across an old photo online and she really likes the look. From the info on the post he used ccmoffroad kit 2.5 with the 1 inch in the back, with 285/75/r17. Question is this. Suggestions on what to use to left/level it and suggestions on a good quiet tire for her? I think I'm going with the these wheels I can get them for $180 each but what offset do I need to keep the stock look. They come in 38,14,25. Any and all help is appreciated.

I'm running 285/70/R17 with the 2.5 CCM level. I was told my stock wheels are a +31 offset. Not sure what stock wheels your running or if they are a similar offset. I want to get Fuel Beast wheels but in a -12 offset. I was told they'll stick out about an inch which I don't mind. I just want a little deep/dish set wheel but I am being told that -12 would cause a lot of rubbing. So if you want stock I think +31 offset or close to it.

I would also suggest Bilstein 5100 shocks after the level or you can level the front with them actually. The ride on my Tahoe after I put on the level and 5100's is better than stock.

The Fuel Hostage wheel are offered in the following offsets.. SO I assume I need to go with a 38 or 25 to remain stock looking?

Went ahead and installed the 2.5"/1" rear leveling kit along with 17x8.5 +24 offset Fuel Hostage wheel and 285/70/R17 Cooper Discoverer on the wifes Yukon. Ride is just has good as before and the tires are very quiet. Only detail that bothers me is that the rear is a 1/4" lower than the frt. I think I will swap the rear spacer out. Overall extremely happy with it..plus she loved it!

Drive it for a bit and let it settle before you go changing stuff out. Looks great!

Looks good idk why but I've been liking the yukons better than the tahoes more. The front ends are just cleaner.

I really like the look of your truck, nicely done.
What are the specs?
Method wheels?
What tires?
Did you cut your front bumper? Plans for it?

Kinda reminds me of LT set up, not a lot of lift but plenty of travel haha.
