Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
This has been the worst headache ever with wrong wheel sizes...too low of a truck...stupid wheel shop in California and now I'm not even sure I like the look...but anyway, they fit now. Most of you guys probably won't like the stance/look...I'm ok with it but i just wish it was lower or bagged. This is the best i can do though for now...I am totally out of money and a baby due tomorrow so I'm just happy to get it figured out.
Now I have two 22's to sell and maybe I can recoup some money to paint the top soon. I also got my upper trim on since I last posted...Its powdercoated to match the rims and the top and grill etc...is gonna be gray too.

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
Well I think the stance is perfect. Im not a big wheel fan, or thin sidewall person, but that really is a personal taste thing.
I really like that you had the trim powder coated, very cool idea. And painting the top to match is also gonna be neat.

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
It looks really good. Its the same color as my 71 Chevy. I wasn't happy with the color of mine until I saw yours. I hope one day mine looks as good as yours.

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
Cool...Thanks guys. It feels good to have some support. Its just been a really frustrating process of dealing with fitament issues and all that...Im happy with it and it isnt rubbing at all really so for that I am super relieved. I probably would have been perfectly fine with a smaller width rim and tire in the back but I do like the thick meat and deep dish back there.
For anyone wondering the fronts are 20x8 with a 255-35-20 +15mm offset Backs are 22x9.5 with a 285-35-22 same offset. I had to minitub the back for those to fit...the fronts Im running stock inner fenders.

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
I'm usually partial to suburbans that sit completely level, but there is something about yours that I like, a lot. I also like the color. I like it all around.

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
Do you mind putting up some pics of the interior and rear of the truck. Also what size drop spring do you have on the rear?

Re: Finally got my stupid wheels on...20/22
very nice! I personally like that stance too. I love them stock, lifted, lowered, and slammed....
Looking forward to seeing it with the trim
