Default Boredom + lug wrench =

Yes... boredom struck again. This time I had a lug wrench in my hand, and a longing desire to see my Denali with 33" mud tires.

I only put one of them on, as you can tell by the picture, but it definitely got me thinking about a 2" leveling kit so I could fit them on there w/ no rubbing.

Actually looks quite nice. As long as gas consumption and reduced MPG aint a concern, go for it.

The Cragar soft 8's look just a little out of place on the denali... otherwise it looks kinda cool.

Its going to take a few right turns to go in the opposite direction because you ain't going to be doing any U-turns in the street with those puppies!

Those are just cheap steel wheels from Schwaby. $60/apiece, but they look alright to me. When I do eventually put mudders on the Denali they'll be chrome.

It seems that no one makes a Denali 2" leveling kit, because of the automatic leveling system in the back gets screwed up, so I'll probably only be able to do 32/11.5/15.

BS if you ask me.

Oh, and if I were the least bit worried or bothered by gas mileage, I probably wouldn't have full size trucks. : ) If it gets better than 15mpg, it's probably not for me.

Couldn't agree more. My Blazer is the most efficient of the three I own.
