I don't know if I should contact my dealers service manager about my truck being so low or not. My guess is they will not do anything if I have the shackles on there.

Yes nitto 420s. 305/40/22 9' wheel with 20mm backspacing. Im pretty happy with them. Towed my 92 home about 100 miles today with no issues at all. Also had a truck full of guys.

I have a 2006 and I have just a 2 inch shacle in the rear and a spring spacer in the front to make it sit perfectly level. I run a 285/45/22 tire and I dont rub one bit. I would not recommend a 305 because they rub the swaybar pretty bad.

Since I can't find anything I like I thought I may as well annoy Keith. Here's a 3/5 on 285/35/22's

Cut your wheels all the way to the left or right and tell me they dont rub...

It's getting closer. I picked up my Escalade handles and chrome mirror caps this weekend. Forum member 72cstK5 (Carlos) brought them to Dallas for me. I took them by the bodyshop today and got a sneak peak.
The side molding is gone now along with the pinstripes. I put the chrome mirror caps on and they looked great against the freshly painted mirrors.

My buddy is going to install the handles and mirror glass tonight so I can pick it up in the morning.

Now I need to make a decision on wheels...
