What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[tooeasy]

Sandblasted and painted my PPV wheels, but I've decided to go with drop spindles and big brakes, both of which require 17" wheels, so these 16" 05-06 style won't work. So I'm in a quandary - I can keep the 17" aluminum GMC rims I'm running now (see pic above), maybe painted charcoal, or spring for some 2015 style 7-spoke PPV rims. Don't care for the 07-14 round hole style. Budget won't allow going any larger because I need to pay for the 3/5" drop kit and brakes. Any opinions?

Cute note. Did your mom put it on there while you weren't looking?

Nope, made that for my wife probably 10 years ago when we were still dating for her car. She moved it over to the Yukon when we bought it. Didn't stick to the new cluster though.

The Big 3 isn't going to hurt but it isn't going to help your discharge issue. It is good you fused the wire. Only idiots on car audio forums don't fuse to save money. The fuse protects the wire.

My suggestion would be to buy the largest deep discharge you can fit. Just make sure the CCA is high enough, which they should be if you get a monster DD. I've done this on other vehicles and never had a problem. Large DD are expensive and heavy for what it's worth.

Or, hook it up to a charger.

What would be your best suggested battery then? I have a 04 z71 suburban.

Brand really doesn't mean anything anymore. Get the best warranty you can with the highest CCA (cold cranking amps)

There are more than a dozen car battery brands, but three manufacturers make almost all of them: Johnson Controls (DieHard, EverStart, Interstate and Duralastbatteries), Exide (Exide, Orbital and Marathon batteries) and East Penn (Deka batteries).

I have 2 optima yellow top batteries I still need to install once I finish running all new terminals and crimp on new heads along with an higher amp/volt alternator

Amazon.com: Optima Batteries 8014-045 D34/78 YellowTop Dual Purpose Battery: Automotive

It has 750 CCA which is more than enough for my needs

Very observant. With all that was wrong with that cluster I missed that.

I've heard Optima are crap nowadays, lots of trouble with them.
