Hey all, just thought I'd share the results of my build today! 2.5/1.5 SuspensionMaxx, 20x9 Helo HE901 black/machined dark tint, 295/55/20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers and Corsa exhaust with black tips. No trimming or rubbing. She's sitting perfect now. Doing PPV front fascia replacement next week and then she should be good to go for a minute.
The work you've done on the LTZ looks GREAT! I bet that exhaust sounds good.
I got a little carried away on my LTZ's front fascia and just blew a bunch of cash on the "off-road package" OE bumper, valence, tow hooks, skid plates. Added the RST black grille a couple weeks ago - really digging that. Most everywhere I looked said that grille was not going to fit my 2015 LTZ, but my guy at Chevy Collision knows these trucks. He said, "order it and it will fit." Anyway, since I'm living in Maine I get onto the logging roads other rough stuff from time to time and need as much clearance up front as I can manage.
That brings me to my current dilemma: I'm going back and forth about which leveling kit to pull the trigger on. I've already decided on the Ridge Grapplers (would love the 295/55/20, but with my stock rims). For many reasons, I was looking at the 1.5 SuspensionMaxx product with MRC delete bracket for the front level only. YOUR RIG IS EXACTLY THE LOOK I WANT THOUGH.
?'s for you:
1) I'm assuming front rake still to your truck since you have the 2.5/1.5 setup. Why didn't you go with 1" in the rear?
2) How much clearance do you have up front with the 295/55/20? Could you have gone with less width and more overall diameter?
3) IYO - what's the largest tire I would be able to put on the Tahoe if I only raised the front 1.5"?
I've done quite a bit of research on changing the LTZ to be something more capable off road. However, trying to keep an eye on the wallet, AND, in the back of my mind is the warranty. Of course we decided to buy a certified pre-owned and my wife and kids fell in love will all the bells and whistles of the LTZ. Enjoy the your ride, weather's finally starting to turn and time to get out and enjoy!
