Hey guys, just purchased a GM Certified 2012 Black Tahoe 4WD LS. 21,000 Miles. Appears to be all stock with the exception of what appears to be a resonator delete & magnaflow tip welded on, prestige remote start, & trailer brake controller. We traded in a '13 Equinox for this. Couldn't be any happier with the ride. I'm looking for some pictures on what an LS looks like with the PPV rims. I like those a lot better than the current rims on it. I'd imagine it looks the same as the PPV, but with the raised ride height of an the civilian models i'd want to make sure it doesn't look goofy. I don't plan on lowering it at all as I like the ground clearance and tow my 80' camaro to the track frequently. Also - does anyone have opinions on the PPV rims? Don't want them to lose the shiny black look and look all dull and rusty after an Ohio winter. On a side note, are the 12's known for oil consumption? Thanks for the help.

I went ahead and installed PPV springs and shocks and still tow. Use helper bags for towing. You would be surprised at how nice it is to get in and out. My 93 year old father can get in with out a step.

Please note a lot of the PPV look comes from the police tires.

Take a look at my picture album.

Thank you for the reply, I like the clearance to much to lower it. You have a good looking ride, glad I saw the interior shots. Will do that next if i'm able to find the stainless trim.
