Hello all,

I am torn on what wheels to get. Right now I'm torn between TBSS reps(22x9 +22) or Snowflake reps(22x9 +24). I'm going to be doing a 3/5 drop.

This is the rig in question: 2004 Yukon in Sandalwood Metallic.

I was thinking of doing the gray if I do the TBSS, or black on the snowflakes. Or would silver look better? It's too tough to decide!

What do y'all think?

Also, anyone know for sure if the TBSS will clear the 20+ brakes? I've seen pictures showing the snowflakes will.

I beleive the limiting factor on the 20+ brake calipers is a minimum 18" wheel. 22's with the offset your looking at should clear plenty. With your current paint scheme I'm thinking bronze.

I was thinking the TBSS would probably clear, but wasn't sure if the face may be too flat. I do agree bronze would look good. It's too bad they don't offer a bronze in either of these wheels. I don't know if I want to pay more to get them powder coated.

Yeah understood on additional costs. I would like to hear from someone with direct TBSS experience to confirm.

I’m looking for new wheels too. IMO snowflakes are sooooo common they’re everywhere. To me the goal of aftermarket wheels is getting something different than stock. Again, my opinion. As for color there’s an anthracite grey out there that looks black or grey depending on the light hitting it. Good luck post pics when you’re done.
